Thanks @CactusNeon for the #CreativeCollaboration
Loose Screws
Twisted
Bent
Warped
I've been accused of stranger things
Doesn't mean it doesn't sting
RING
the bell
I'm here to tell
every secret you bribed me not to
All for you
Every ounce of effort
every drop of blood
Love?
Perhaps for a while it made me smile
but infatuation soon fades
black ace of spades
death of the pheromones
Hormones
More like collateral damage
Tossing off the memories
Jeopardizing subtleties
Exchanging truth for lies
Surprise!
I know it's cause you love me.
Hide the evidence
the laws been spent
Exchanging currency
in a lost economy
Will we survive
this beautiful charade
Before we're made
Forced to confess
cuffed and arrest-ed
on a bed of roses
drowned in a sea split by Moses
a crown of thorns awaits
on my pillow.
Thanks to Matthew Hatt (@CactusNeon) for taking my words and making them a little more colorful. Going up for OpenLinkNight where Claudia will be taking over the pub to host the best poetry party online. Join us at dVersePoets where Mr.Linky will be going live at 3pmEST.

Will we survive
this beautiful charade
Before we're made...ouch...hard to keep it up you know...felt words when i just released myself in their flow....
great biblical allusions at the end as well...the crown of thorns on the pillow is a hard, but great image to end on...
the shades of certainty
drawn
not tight enough
the light creeps
seeps
through
it never really fades
does it
Peace
