-tears. of_ lead
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
your words reflect your [lies]

{Won-der/ful} I am in lust for the way you opened this piece. I am in love with the ending and my heart feels the pain in between. For her I feel just pity. This emotional piece was an honour to read and I wear it on my page with affection. Thank you ever so much for the read. Blue skies to you Al.

Simply incredible piece. While I was originally not a fan of your use of punctuation, it's substantially grown on me the more of your stuff I've read. It intrigues me to find that I actually have preconceived notions as to how punctuation can sound when bent like a contortionist, like they're phonetic supplements to the letters and words. And the meanings leave much to be mulled over. This is a razor-sharp piece--there's nothing constructive I can add.
