He cackles as I cry in the corner of my brain
Forcing his way past my skull with brazen wordplay
With a disguised caress to my cheek, he drops a bomb to my soul
The worst part is, he didn’t think I could know
My pretty little liar
Runs across the wasteland of my mind
Playing my emotions for fools, flipping my thoughts on their maidenheads
Each footprint in my Armageddon’s mud is an exposed fear
I turn green with nausea and my trust blackens with lust’s ashes
This clever cycle of fire traps me in its center
I have loved and now I panic, and forever I will burn.

I have absolutely no idea what to say... this think left me speechless, accompanied by breathless ! The vocabulary is absolutely amazing. You told such a magnificent story, with amazing detail and imagery. I was thinking that you chose option number one ! That's what i loved the most- you made me think wrong.
I don't have a favorite line... it's impossible to have one with this piece ! i adore the background ! it's added so much more depth to your piece. you write like an adult, which is even more surprising. i could never accomplish such a fine piece myself.
Sorry for writing so much
i tend to do that. Curse my love for writing !
Wonderful, wonderful write. I wouldn't be surprised AT ALL if you saw a shiny thing coming you way ;] Thank you so much for entering and best of luck in my contest !
