Windy nights in a warm room

by PorcelainMoon   Oct 20, 2013


Hangover from your kiss, the sweetest smiles still aren't yours. Pavement roads moving a heavy load, my consciousness blows out the exhaust like a burning cigarette. Windy nights in a warm room, your body tastes like a salty wound, making me miss the pain. I'll never forget how you made me feel so alone.

Anticipating the silence, scars on your lower back like you miss something. Touching you isn't guilty anymore, it's a full moon and you're a who*e. There's something about the stars tonight, when we stand under it, yearning. Hold my bones like it means something, don't lift the Blanket, you'll see my soul has dried up.

Wrinkles in your eyes, swaying your hips like you miss me. Talking so loud, your madness it moves me. Grasping at the wind when no one remembers your name. Talking in tongues, I wish I never died alone.

    I think this poem has promise, it just needs to be structured properly into stanzas. Also, the rhyme got a little forced near the end: there is no need for the poem to rhyme so much, the rhyme was more subtle and therefore effective in the first verse. But definitely, there is some sense of potential in this poem as the wording is quite accomplished and the images are interesting. Keep it up
