I rolled the stockings down my legs
and popped the backs of earrings beg--
I took the necklace from my neck
and weary I met eye to eye...

Funny, how I feel so weighed.
Measured and I'm still in want.
cigarettes and stale perfume
I am a little girl in haunt

wanting just to claim me now.

"Mommy?" This is not much fun.
I don't like your powder's weep...
Glitter in the scratch of eye
and my lips look like they bleed...

I hiss an exhale of my smoke.
I dim the lights and squint.
I place the strap back where it was--
ready for the Parliament.

steady sober circles blue
I dust myself away--
take another drop of you?
sad, that you saw me this way

watch me as I laugh away
the minutes of our time...

this...

.
hurts
on places only I know...

but if, if I could give something back?

It would be that I read it
several times...

Serenity...I read it, I felt the emotion deep within your words, but I am still working on the you of it. Touching and so revealing. Thanks for sharing...Paul

I wish I could find the words to describe what this did to me.... The whole thing just aches.... You're wonderful, you know that?

wounded and broken and hurting.... what scares me is that I'm starting to just not care, except that I wish I could cry the pain away....
