Bruised lips; <br />Mascara smeared- <br />Panties lying <br />Over there. <br />Cold chills <br />Ratted hair, <br />Dull glow of a cigarette- <br />Lacking romance in your stare. <br />Top button, <br />Bottom step, <br />Door clicks shut: <br />Morals inept. <br />Window cracked, <br />Back to the wall- <br />Don't watch to see, <br />Don't care at all. <br />Another name, <br />Another face, <br />Another dress <br />To be relaced. <br />24 hours <br />And honorable mention; <br />Stepping out <br />From this suspension. <br />Already know <br />The fate that waits- <br />Don't bother calling, <br />It'd be too late. <br />Another girl, <br />Another day, <br />Another heart <br />You've locked away. <br />Making knotches <br />In your bedpost; <br />Love letters tossed- <br />Another name to boast. <br />Another body <br />You've advertised, <br />While promising a hope <br />Of paradise. <br />Another face, <br />Forgotten the name- <br />To you every girl <br />Is one in the same. <br />I'm no different, <br />But you'll see.. <br />The truth behind <br />This sad story- <br />I found you out <br />Before time came- <br />You're a moment too late; <br />And I'm the one that got away.<br /><br />Jessy Liz<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/bruised-lips/
