Promises and broken spades

Lilac rays are falling
caressing feet in battered snow
a chilly wind descending
thick white trees with windswept toes.
in shattered hearts im crashing
the light is blinding, violet stare
retreat to gold lined whites of lies
and cower small and hopeless there.
behind my empty promises
i see a sign of truths decay
falling faster, grinding teeth
i see more luster, ground beneath.
the truth comes out, my lies are gone
she sings a tirade, hearts of song.
and in that snowglobe, tempting light
we sing together, forever night.

Author notes

i like to play with my emotions. this one was written because i told a lie and didnt like that i did. but i told the truth after word and the person still loves me!

    for some reason this poem reminds me of the dirty pretty style of poetry. the ugliness behind the facade of glitter, but backwards. and once again, i love the title

    I like your use of colour...there's a lot of purple and white in this...whatever that means...but it's nice.
