-tears. of_ lead

By Six-Out

like a lipstick note on the bathroom mirror
your words reflect your [lies]
_:take time 'sweetypie';
as you slam your fist into me- and watch your world shatter

miss-materialistic /drama/queen.
licking my wounds _with your tongue of ::salt
such a [p.i.t.i-ful] excuse
of _something_ -once worth trying for

-
like a broken-hearted goodbye; on a splintered summer morning
your -tears of lead- fall into my chest
hollowpoints:: on silk wings of perfections
ripping [for-got/en] dreams from a fragile mind
my dahlia:; on a funeral wreath
I never saw you wilt

[love was your mask]

but
like a lipstick note on a bathroom mirror
you can be washed away

lots of people swear while commenting on your writing, i guess thats either because they suck at comments or lack the words to describe the feeling this gives, a bit of both probably :)
A former member wrote: "like a lipstick note on the bathroom mirror your words reflect your [lies]" Stunning[w/ teeth]! Like the words of a prophet written on subway walls... Bam! (the formatting is delicious:perfect) bravo!
A former member wrote: "my dahlia:; on a funeral wreath I never saw you wilt"..this was magnificant. every chord seemed to echo through my head and it captured all the disappointment entrapped in this piece. i love it.

I love the flow and feel of this piece - my favourite lines out of many good ones are "on a splintered summer morning your -tears of lead- fall into my chest hollowpoints:: on silk wings of perfections".

The contrasting images of tears, hollowpoints and silk wings intertwined in that description are so effective in conveying the mixed emotions present when a romance is over... Really great job. Ciao, T/S

lipstick is bloody hell to get off anything, but it can be done. usually with chemicals or the sleeve of a current lover. :D
