Strange poetry

[whitereflection]

First phrase has been chewing on me for several days now, had to do something with it. Not based on anything, just for the hell of it. Amazing that I've gotten so much done at work today, distracted by crap like this.

Paranoiadoration
(dvad 2-19-04)

I can taste you
shattering,
swallowing disguised kisses flavored salt
as you paint my eyes closed with
dissonant love words,
brush dripping whispered lies
onto the carpet --
Your desperate caresses
weep over my skin,
a deep tattoo of
searing devotion,
until I hear nothing but the
illusion sung
by your hypnotizing touch --
I lock away
reflecting echoes of heart-hate and
endings,
and discover I can still
pretend belief
and convince pathetic fools that
the bitter tang
of my smile
is syrup-sugar-sweet.
