Your Skin Is Bruised And I Feel Used
Folder:
Rearview We spend this night apart
It's like we're going nowhere
A solid second passes from where we started
Now I'm trapped inside this web
Suffocating from the laughter
There's no comfort when the pillow hits my head
And now we're stuck with goodbyes
The blue sky's turning frail
Your skin is bruised and I feel used
From all these years shared between us
Can't trust the ones that need us
I feel better when I'm down and used
From this abuse that's shared between us
If it makes you think back to the time
You said, "I'll never leave you standing"
But that's just too demanding of a pick up line
So goodbye
Take what you have brought now
Take the jewelery off your finger
This memory will linger 'til it makes you want to break
So goodbye
Take what you have brought now
Take the jewelery off your finger
This love will surely sting her all the way to bone
And now we're stuck with goodbyes
The blue sky's turning frail
Your skin is bruised and I feel used
From all the tears shed between us
Why did we think that they would clean us
Cause I feel better when I'm down and used
Now I'm confused especially when I'm sober
Take the jewelery off
It doesn't mean a thing
Wow. You have a lot of poems here. Well I suppose you have been writing for a few years..lol. I'm gonna read as many as I can, they're great, you really have a gift as a writer. So far, I love this one particularly, it's got an interesting structure and concept. I liked the lines:
'This memory will linger 'til it makes you want to break'...and 'You said, "I'll never leave you standing"
But that's just too demanding of a pick up line.'
Awesome Peice. Sorry for such a long comment!
