Blue spills
transcending borders
rush forward in vigour
pull back in cowardice
cradle of life
pleas to remedy
the cruel irony
delivered to the hands
seek and robbed.
i still don't know how to write long poetry...if this even makes sense..
This ink is tasteless
so unlike the desire of the pen;
the hands of agony
bleeds in frustration
anger propelling many wastes.

Fingers many a tapping
knocking on the door of inspiration;
Alas !
all that remains is the dead black night
mirrored in a ubiquitous cup of coffee
bearing more tasteless inks
wasting the passionate desire of lamps.
We are both sinners;
you have stolen from me
so
lost my tool for survival
i became a con-artist
lying with multiple identities
i am alive and well
but
i killed myself.

you'll bear
the responsibility of making me
this sinner.
up to open interpretation.. thievery and disassociative identity disorder..
Cursive attempts;
  simple words
misread
misinterpreted
mislead
every juncture
appendage
spins
dear readers
a web of confusion
blame not the spider
deceiving its prey.
to people with unreadable handwriting.
She would be dressed pretty in rags
slaving like there's no tomorrow
without that bit of altruism
maybe a tad kindhearted
shrouded in materialism.

Fairy godmother's name
is money
lures her
to a game of fame
keeps silent
of its rules.

Her beauty
makes her a winner
she would
be drunk
attention
glamour
pleasure.

Unknowingly
games drawn to an end
the clock strikes twelve;
Struck her
riches to rags
the magic of money
only lasts so long
Struck her
still had not find
her one true love
at the eleventh hour.

Sobered
ran out in embarrassment
left only a glass slipper.

Desolate
returning to rags
a druggie for fame
with much hope
a prince charming
would remember
her to find.
a gentle shower
with love from the monsoon
splashing footsteps rang
a hasten pace
soon escalates
into
a thunderstorm of fury.

squeezing
my heart
dry
remnants
are the footprints
you left in my darkest hour.
The quest for perfection
let this pen
to write an imperfect poem.
rarely satisfied with what i write :(
