A petal plucked promise, and last years I do's

[If everything is cliche'


  Then why does this feel so new?]

I stole my way across a crowded room, just to gain one more glance at a heart beat's selfish desire

Though this story has been told a thousand.and.one times over
why does it not grow old & cold in my heart?

(I was never one for the redundant)

Your wilting flowers look as fresh, scattered at my feet, as a one night stand's long, lying, promises.

I prick my fingers, to make sure this surreal sanctum is actually taking place.



My mind has been known to drag me into worlds unknown
Because this decaying infliction just won't let go of me.



My breath is so harsh in my lungs
But your's is ever more the fierce.



With hipbones showing through a white, cotton, wool, dress
I knew see through and barely there was back in style.

    The background is a bit ironic...and a little psychotic...and alot iconic. Ok just kidding...but still it's a good poem. A little cliched but still well written.

    You didn't spellcheck. Let me know when you have done that, and I will finish reading this.
