Nous Marions...?

Nous Marions...?

:icongirlwhosangtheblues:

You've got much to hide,
But you're terrified that
I've learned to look behind the
wide eyed innocence you
used to shade your eyes
There's a big black hole in
your sweet guise,
and it's full of lies-
take your own advice,
If this knot unties
all you've got is rope and the
slickest slope you've
ever met.
It's early yet for
the easy thrill,
can't you just stay still?
Make yourself un-feel what
cannot be real.
For a sleek mirage,
as you sabotage with
your secret sword,
then your praise the Lord,
claiming your remorse?
Let it run its course?
Has your heart divorced
your head?

Fairytales Gone Wrong Somewhere, I lost my way-
Isn't that the how these things always start?
I lived for a wedding, my heart,
the love of my life...
My God, what became of that
lost little girl?
So certain someday to make a wife.
So sure that eventually, there would be princes,
white horses, white lace, and picket fences.
Someday, by God, he would make his appearance.
Now my biggest fear is... If he did?
It wouldn't make any difference.
I wince every time I hear "beautiful" from
the lips of some sentimental sob
who wants to make me into his newest hobby.
Probability tells me
the whole thing is destined to fail.
Every match made in heaven is heaFairytales Gone Wrong by ~girlwhosangtheblues
Winter Nights A moment, crystallized in mist,
as we brave the elements-
whiteness begets whiteness.
Snowfall the only witness-
that there is nothing pure about this.
Frost-kissed lips, noses, fingertips,
as wisps of smoke wreath your face,
embracing you like a lover.
You seem out of place against this perfect stillness,
the amber pinpoint of your cigarette splitting the darkness
as you fill your lungs with what will
someday be your death,
Yet, tonight it is I who cannot catch my breath.
The wind reaching beneath my dress,
caressing my breasts like a lover until
you press against me. For warmth
or want? I can only guess.
Despite the cold, Winter Nights by ~girlwhosangtheblues
On the Rocks Guess there's something
to be said for a girl like
that, batting
mascaraed lashes
as she's getting trashed-
In the the strobe light flashing,
She's a spray-tanned princess,
a walking ad for peroxide rinses
And she doesn't mince words-
leaving men defenseless
with her lipsticked grin
when she's trading winks
for her next free drink.
She's not thinking of you:
Her mind's on butterfly tattoos,
appletinis, bikinis. High-heeled
shoes and her matching purse
are her universe,
but she flirts her way to a
few too many,
then she's anybody's
if they only ask over
one last glass.
If she doesn't pass out,
maybe she'll give in
And On the Rocks by ~girlwhosangtheblues
We Have the Music Cohen said that
only ugly people can
make music of love, love of music.
Sounds pour fourth from our lips
that resemble symphonies,
perfect harmonies,
violins in the ringing in our ears.
tympanis beating time in our chests
as each caress suggests another note.
Our love is an opus
surrounded by the
ten-minute prominence
of  a hundred pop songs-
pretty for a moment, but
forgotten by week’s end,
never to be heard from again.
But we make music to be remembered.
Our crescendos will swell the hearts
of every lover who’s ever known
the beauty of
not needing beauty.We Have the Music by ~girlwhosangtheblues

Do I dare disturb the universe?

:icongirlwhosangtheblues:

Turns out I don't really write anymore. I mean, not really. I'm not sure how this happened. I've tried a few things, but I don't feel... Mesmerized by words, I suppose is the best description I can come up with at the moment.
Don't get me wrong. I love words. I adore them, I like to say them. I even like to put them together. But I no longer seem to possess the ability to formulate them into anything resembling poetry. Not good poetry, anyway. And I never was a short story writer- just doesn't do it for me.
This is all the explanation you're liable to get for my extended absence. I'm around, in other places. If you're interested, I'll be happy to tell you where to find me.
