Keep Me Safe /&&/ I'll Keep You Safe

Mouth smeared with red lipstick, acrylic-tips
My heart cluttered with deceit, cocaine-trips

Give me your heart, I’ll keep it safe
Locked away in the chest of a waif

Glitter-covered eyes and a smile of silver
We can make her better, rebuild her

Trust in me to keep you breathing
I promise to scatter your seething

The lime-green blood pulses in my veins
Listen to the beat my heart contains

Brain frozen, dusted with frost
Incoherence found, sanity lost

Keep me as I keep you
In a cage of sorrow, black and blue

    I adorred this part, hunny.

    Great poem.

    Just one thing. Some of the lines and rhymes sound forced. Just a little though, and for the most part it doesn't take away from the poem.

    Welcome to the finalists list, dear.
