Porcelain Purge Hurling into the shower, screaming until the water ran cold, with betrayal, shock and hopelessness bouncing off the cheshire walls returning to coat me in my accusations. Kneeling on the hard tile, I turn inside out as droplets scathe cheeks with stains of how and why, unanswered pelted by tepid streams and soaked realities matching the sobbing outpour of aimless rivers. Lava tears burn fury trails down vacant breasts in shiver, feeble, I slide to the floor in exhausted acceptance watching pellets play upon defeated fingers, beading and rolling, moisture drops itching along the white walls of my skin. Promises swirl down the drain of steady porcelain rain licking in folds of curve, a soothing beat upon my back calming with wet caress surrounding salty remembrance that washes you away.

Pretty intense imagery here, Melodie. I have many thoughts about this poem, not all of which I'm ready to discuss yet. The imagery is striking. Welcome to Passions. I look forward to reading more poetry from you. |

Well hello my fellow Canadian ~ Welcome to Passions!!! 'Profound, raw' and 'exceptional' doesn't even do this poem justice, this is beyond excellent writing. I can really 'feel' the pain, struggle and hope in this. You've made quite the impressive entrance with this piece. Take care, Melissa "Poetry is not an opinion expressed... |
