[ Technicolor swirls ]

 

These stars shine brighter than your eyes tonight baby. oh the Technicolor swirls can’t make up for these lies this time, the “your so beautiful’s” The “wish you were mines” I bet you’ve said those lines to guys [countless] times. Guess ignorance took hold of me When I thought those sparkling words were all mine. And the way the strum of your guitar in the parking lot that day made me plummet into a young crush [you knew I would love it]. I didn’t know it would send me crashing and burning into a field of razor flowers, But you knew that would happen didn't you? ~You narcissistic boy, you ruined me~

Im still having toxic flashbacks. the party. the booze. the pills. the lights. Your hand over my tipsy mouth, as I was trying to spill screams onto these already dirty sheets. The ringing in my ears hasn't stopped yet from that blow. I’ve got the scars to prove it, these cuts **self mutilation never looked so beautiful** yea you caused them. ~You narcissistic boy, you ruined me~ they say time brings healing well boy time has done nothing but break me down. But now im being brave. im getting over it. getting over you. God sends hope and healing.





Im going to win this. You can't take me down. not this time.

    I think it's a great write.
    It's very, very powerful .
    I think the prose effect works better than stanzas could, it shows the sheer force of your emotions behind it.

    the dirty sheets line is brilliant, the toxic flashbacks is lovely, the sparkling words - amazing and the **self mutilation....** is my favourite line in the whole piece.


    I love the last line, so very honest and strong.

    Stay strong, stay safe, please.
    But it sounds as if you're doing ok, keep up with it.

    I think this is amazing, and as all of your poems, its real. I love your work, and though it is terribly sad, I can relate. I seriously felt this work. I love you so much, duck!

    This has a lot of strong emotion in it. I really enjoyed reading it although its very sad. I wish you the best luck at getting over the hurdle of self harm addiction, I think I almost have. :] <3

    "Your hand over my tipsy mouth, as I was trying to spill screams onto these already dirty sheets."

    -- That was my favorite line.
    Keep on writing sweetpea.

    i like the emotion in it.
    and i also like the descriptions of it.
    especially the "toxic flashbacks" part.
    but its more of a prose than a poem.
    maybe you should put it in stanzas.
    for example:

    "Im still having toxic flashbacks.
    the party.
    the booze.
    the pills.
    the lights.
    Your hand over my tipsy mouth
    as I was trying to spill screams
    onto these already dirty sheets."

    otherwise, great job.
    keep on writing and don't give up! :]]

    i think it's good.
    it's really sad though.

    sometimes it's hard to let go;;
    but it's better for you if you do.

    "I didn't know it would send me crashing and burning into a field of razor flowers, But you knew that would happen didn't you?"
