Deception written on your lips,
smudged memories of my lipstick.
Desire cut into your skin, shown by
the nail marks I scourged into your back
in the heat of passion.
A life of lies I'd know nothing about
if it wasn't for you;
A world of empty passions, of one night stands,
a broken heart that you can't replace.
I kiss you, hug you, hold you in the deep dark night, but I'm not really with you.
As I take you, I don't know you,
I don't want you.
You're a shadow of the man I want,
you will never know the true me.
Because you aren't the man I want,
you are nothing that I need.
You know nothing of the real me.

I might have messy hair, runny makeup and a tear-steaked face, but at least I know I have loved.

The beginning starts off so hopeful and ends so sadly.

the man you want?

sometimes i wonder if anyone knows what they truly want...

great poem! Made me think a bit about my past and some things i've done in my love life.

keep writing because you're clearly good at it

it's amazing how powerful words can be when they're used right... good piece

"Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light"
-Dylan Thomas
