sex with a bullet proof vest on

By Bella Butchery

crash against ships

my conscience drips

leaks lead me

to waiting all day

for my plan to unfold

and meanwhile

keep the chemicals chronicled

Because this will rip

me to shreds

when we wake hung over

And im not in your bed.

destroy these answers i seek,

now im torn between

the scars on my chest

and dreams that

profoundly disturb your rest,

pushed aside

how long has it been

since you were alive?

so lay comatose

with your dreams set

to overdose,

and believe in me

to climb great heights

to re-write this tragedy

    Sometimes, the most intimate thing we can do with someone is the most damaging. And the hovering to get back what was / could have been - bravo - excellent

    I see a lot of angles here, mainly the use of self-induced abuse. Much love and respect, keep the masses feeling uneasy about themselves and you'll find you're 10 steps ahead.

    "..with your dreams set to overdose" What a line, and what a fantastic poem. Oh, and that title - no-strings attached-sex? If only..

    to tell you the truth, self-medication, hopeless/loveless ex-sex, with a dash of self destruction. im too analytical and wrongly interpret certain girls motives. blah blah blah
