love, in shortit's something
you'll realise
like an electrical fire
and my god,
it will hurt
and you will smile
because it hurt
and that means
it wasn't all a dream.
KissKnees bend, hands shake,
Lips part, hearts break,
Blood pumps, thoughts fly,
Bodies melt, worries die,
Heads swim, fingers touch,
Tongues rub, clothes bunch.

Butterflies, adrenaline,
Testosterone and estrogen,
We fit like a glove, so...
Kiss me again, love?
Comic Book HeroWe met in the Summer, I was single and free,
So fragile and sweet, he took care of me.
He was so much fun, exciting and new,
It was all so amazing, too good to be true.

Like a comic book hero, he swept me away.
He promised me the world, the night and day.
But his heart was untrue, his words were lies.
No comic book hero, but a villain disguised.

Our romance was deep, like Superman and Miss Lane
Iron Man, Miss Potts, Spidey and Mary Jane.
He impressed me with gifts, and words sublime,
Affirmations of how he would always be mine.

Like a comic book hero, he swept me away.
He promised me the world, the night and day.
But his hea
16.7.1945You can't blame them for what they did, not really.

Their war, ensnaring the most powerful countries in the world and sending millions of their finest young men and women out as if to the slaughter, had been raging for nearly six years. Both sides showed no sign of faltering, entertained no thought of surrender. Something had to be done to break the psychological stalemate. Something that would make men fall to their knees in awe even as their cities and their people disappeared in a flash of white light.

What the scientists and the handful of informed onlookers say today in the desert under heavy rain will never be known by man, for the ag
DesecrateThe world is a thread. Someone, somewhere in the exosphere a hundred thousand miles away from anywhere we'll ever stand is wearing a stopwatch, containing every fibre, every sinew that holds every body together, every human, every woven tapestry generations have sought to improve.

What if the wearer watched someone rip apart the wings and chrysalis of a butterfly? Someone pour oil into an ocean of glitteringf fish? Smog over london and car exhausts coughing up carbon monoxide into the nostrils of newborns, stained dark on the insides?

Maybe they'd pull apart every tapestry in a fit of rage when they see nuclear clouds unfolding in the dista
Poetry,She is stardust leaving sweet bones
in her wake.  A trail of poetic destruction
conceived in verse--answering questions
with kisses.  There is a hunger in her
freckled constellations, like spider webs
woven together with golden thread.
Like the wild roses she braids in her hair:
She walks backboned and head held high;
the strongest of letters on a page
left to rest in your mouth.

The Sanguinary OfferingThe Sanguinary Offering:

We lay her down upon the altar
With chains to hold her hands and feet.
She will not stir and she will not speak;
Our eyes she will not meet...

This girl was made for a single purpose
She is here to serve in death.
A simple container of blood and flesh
Soon to be robbed of breath.

Our hands bear the ancient markings
Scars we open with trembling hands.
For the scent of our blood shall awaken him;
The sleeping lord of our land...

With heads pressed to the dirty floor
We cower in fear at the Raven's cry.
For the bird shall serve as the master's herald;
And none would dare to meet his eye!

Cold and lifeles
PressureSomething broke.

A hard CRACK while sitting in
a soft chair. No pain registered.
The absence of it
is like watching explosions in space.

You follow the curve of your skull. You remember
how skulls are formed like tectonic plates.
Your head wants to be a planet,
volcanic, living, in change.

You continue to your left shoulder,
the one with all the problems.
But today, it has nothing to say.

Your rib cage moves
like oceanic waves, expecting a storm
that hasn't come.

You stand up,
homo erectus,
you consider your legs,
homo sapiens,
nothing feels wrong,
homo stabilis.

But you can break
more than your body.
What You Can't RememberWhat You Can't Remember:

You know that something's wrong inside
But you will try to hide it.
Far away from prying eyes;
You say you don't remember...

What is this memory inside.
You feel like you've forgotten.
A part of you decides;
To say you don't remember...

How long will you deny
The bitter truth behind it.
The day you lost yourself;
But now you can't remember...

When first you took away the mask
And looked back at the mirror.
You thought you saw another man;
But you simply don't remember...

The times when you were not yourself
When you forced yourself upon her.
It was a day like this;
But now you won't remember...

I Am Scared"I Am Scared"

The hardest thing anyone can say

Is admitting when they are afraid

Facing one's self even for the brave

Can be the toughest task on any day

There's a whole wide world waiting to explore

If you could only step beyond your hardwood doors

I admit sometimes that I am scared

Of the uncertainty waiting out there

If you reach down deep and discover the true

Meanings of paranoia it might just scare you

I'm afraid of failure, rejection, denial

I'm scared of walking aimlessly for miles

All my dreams always seem to shatter

It's difficult to conjure new dreams that matter

But everyday that passes us by

Means another chance I
AddictionAddiction:

The lights are out and I'm feeling manic
My heart is thumping in a shivering panic.
It's like I'm hitting, my all time low;
How many more; do I have to go?

Hello, hello, can you hear me speak?
I'm afraid my voice is getting weak.
My screams and sounds are growing quiet;
I need those pills; I'm growing tired...

Without them I'm colourless, just an empty face
Oh no, oh no, I'm in a dirty place...
I don't know how and I don't know why;
But it's just so hard to say goodbye.

When you need a feeling, when you need a high;
It's really easy to tell the lie:
'I'm fine, I'm fine, it's just a trial!'
But you can't hear, your o
People are ugly.Listen to me

There are ugly people out there

Not just on the outside

But on the inside too

There are horrible people

Who are pretty

And there are ugly people

Who are perfect

So when you say

'everyone's beautiful'

That's a lie

There are ugly people out there

Inside and out
Make Up To Break UpI use your mascara flooded tears
As ink for my pen
A pot full supplied as I suggest
That we still remain friends
I dip the flight feathered quill
Into those murky tears
The ivory parchment paper
Will soak them up nicely my dear

I use your powder based foundation
As I'm ashamed of these scars
There is no foundation to my pain
So how did it get this far
I paint 'love' and I paint 'hate'
On to manicured finger nails
You make up your pretty face
Before you make up another tale

I use your ruby red lipstick
To tell you of my curse
Wrote 'redrum' on the mirror
You see 'murder' in reverse
Make me up to be beautiful
Before these

Critique by *Shattered-Writer May 28, 2013, 5:19:17 PM
Let me start by saying that this is seriously heartfelt! I rated it so high because I'm usually the go-to person for all my friends and honestly everything you listed I've heard about from the females that speak to me. They're so heartbroken when they find out Mr Right has cheated on them that they eat comfort food and keep a box of tissue at hand. Then they proceed to plot their revenge but that's not the point here.

I felt the raw emotion from these bold words. My favorite is Number 8 when you say " To wipe that crap off your lips when you say I'm the only one." and I dunno if I'm right or not but are you really trying to say " Let me wipe that bullshit off your lip for you" in a kinder way? I'm just asking. Number Eight made me laugh but then with Number nine I'm brought back down to reality when we see how you try to get revenge and with number ten we see how you feel remorse over the wasted time, tears, and make up you invested in some stupid player.

In other words I'm saying this is excellent. The only reason I gave you a 4.5 on impact is because...well, I'm a boy. I can't relate as well as a girl can. This was very awesome and you have my watch. Great job.

This is super cute! Turning toilet paper into a story of love, loss, and betrayal takes some talent. It was fun to read.
