Incommunicative.


Red flowing threads,
…my façade

desensitized,
no hue of pink to cheek

Sullen green, beams
from virtually hollow eyes.

Mouth should move,
tell the journey,
Past and its promises

            

       overruled, 

       Silence forced to abide,
       concealed behind veils of

                                             still air…

    I like it when you write in this way...kind of detached from reality but it works so well.

    Love and hugs

    "my facade"
    I love the word 'facade'...it's just so much cooler than "This is not the real me."

    "desensitized"
    Amazing word, and great word choice CinCity.

    "Sullen green"
    The word 'sullen' is another good word choice...you are good with adjectives

    "Mouth should move,
    tell the journey"
    Doesn't mean it will!!

    I don't think you need the 'however'...'overruled' kind of says enough for me. Just my opinion--if you want it to stay as much as you want a cupcake, that's cool with me, but I think it'd sound better without 'however'.

    "Silence forced to abide"
    Nice...although, "Bidden silence" would be cool as well IMHO...not sure which one I like more. =D

    "veils of still air"
    WOW. Very nice...(:

    Thanks for entering & giving me the Gold to your other contest...which spawned this one. =D

      So yep, it's going

    oooooooooooo. LOVE IT . You did well Cin! I love the reference of her hair to threads .and I love the word desensitized. That's an accurate word that definitely describes her facial expression as she looks rather unaffected. g'luck in the contest!

    Ya know.. I wear my hair as a facade too in a way.. I use it to hide behind.. which is why I never feel comfortable with it tied up!

    Think you picked up on the feeling in her eyes really well sis!
    Ahh that still air....
