dwindling innocence.

I take quick, short drags on my dwindling cigarrette while we stare at eachother from across the black table resting outside of Mocha Motts, the coffee shop where we grew up drinking coffee, cuddling, and giggling.  But today, those memories are pushed back farther than the ones of my kindergarten graduation, and I stare into your cold eyes filled with anything but emotion.
...
Supposedly you thought that I would never find out. That you could fool me into thinking that you really loved me, that I was the only one who would ever taste your smoke tainted lips. You were right for a while; and I believed you loved me. But then I woke up from the dream I was living and I came crashing down to that harsh thing called reality.
...
The day I saw you kiss her was the day I realized that I never meant anything to you, even though you mean everything to me.


"Love" is a lie, and so are you.

    i really liked this, i felt like i couldn't read it fast enough but i needed to know what you were going to say next. very powerful.

  • this was pretty I liked it good work...

  • Some nice images, nice but very common in poetry. Thescenario is very common as well, but that's ok, it's a theme that is easy to relate to for most of us. I just wish it was developed further. A reflection that takes the write deeper, twists the knife deeper. Try taking it one step further, drown in the experience. What kind of images does it conjure up? See what I mean?
