Him and I shared a lipstick romance,
no one could justify
what was wrong or right,
it was so pitiful.

And we knew that it was cliche,
to say we stuck together like glue,
and for the most part that wasn't true.

We took for granted our lipstick romance,
we forgot the pictures taken,
so the memories would still come up,
but they often fade and fold.

This smile is fake,
These tears aren't.

I like it a lot in once sense it sounds like a hurtful poem but yet it also has a sense of true love about it...

The thought always comes

'Is that all that rose up'

You make it sound grubby but sex has often nothing to do with romance - they are not mutally exclusive despite what a preacher might tell you

One is of the mind, the other of the mind to

Your words needed saying
