Love Knot

by BrokenMisery   Sep 8, 2006


Wilted flowers in the casket
A tear and handshake with the dead
Its all in the memories
It's all in the lies that fed
(the crows)

Leave the phone unhooked, and pass the hours by
Stitch her skin in the marks he left, the marks that made her cry.

Barcode this girl as useless
A used-by-date long passed
Don't speak of a tragedy
For a girl's role is surpassed

Lie at the man's feet
Humble in his control
Weren't meant to feel, so never mind the tears girl

It's the heart and the shape,
The dead that make
(the vulnerable)

Little girl
Tie the noose as a love knot

    This poem was kind of confusing at
    first but as I read on I got the meaning
    you used the right kind of words to help the reader use his or her imagination. But I think the flow is
    kind of off. I loved it don't get me
    wrong. I just think you should patch
    things up a little to make it perfect.
    I still give you a 5/5 because as I said
    its great, but it needs a small touch up

    Love

    It kind of confused me? I loved the images that you created in your words. But the flow could use a little bit of work, nto much just one or two lines. It was a great poem overall though. 4/5 =]
