Notebook Stains

Your notebook words are now just stains
  & the hollow promise ring
It's *glittering* diamond is missing
      Who knew love could feel so empty

I tried to |c|a|r|v|e| out im[perfect]ion from my veins
    But it's never enough anyway
I picked up the blade, the {razor's dream}
        Could always hush my whispered -->screams<--

It's a memory I erase
  With the |pills| that have a bitter taste
Cleansing myself with the |mid|night| thunderstorm rain
      Let's try to .cry. away the pain
   
I was simply nothing more
  Then your shatt\ered bedroom .w.h.o.r.e.
So just let me [bleed] with this storm
  I can't seem to l a u g h anymore 

This {poison pen}
  Helps me rid myself.of.you
With every notebook stain
    I let out a little more pain

    i like the beginning the best because it draws you in & many can relate to lost love & that -empty- feeling you get when there's just not any hope anymore to save the relationship..great piece

    this is gorgeous. I absolutely love this poem.
    I love the style of it, and I really love the flow.
    It's extremely emotional...it made me angry and sad and empty...I felt like the person. It's amazing.

    this is good, but im starting to wander if you just wrote it to write it or if you really feel that way.

      i started writing it and felt that way--it reminds me of an ex but i swore to never write about him... maybe thats why i odnt know
      but with my writing, i always let out emotional pain its the only proper way i know how too
