Magician by ~BloodyMascara:iconBloodyMascara:

Categories Literature > Poetry > General Poetry > Open




Words that I pull from my mouth
Behind my lips,
they smell like smoke
A confetti of nicotine
And a few loose teeth
A silk ribbon,
from under my sleeve
Word after word, sliding off of my tongue
They just keep falling to the floor
In a heap of false hope
The "I love you"s and the "I hate you"s
And the "Please pass the ketchup"
And the applause could wake the dead
I am a magician
I am a magician
And I can make you want me

And I can make you want me

Even the ugliest things can be pretty under certain lighting.
It's a matter of twist..of deception.
And I'm becoming quite good at it.

this sort of reminds me of something I would write... except for the fact that your piece, of course, is much better than any of mine.
good job, i really like how it's short and to the point, yet it's so descriptive at the same time.
"word after word, sliding off of my tounge" i like that one. :clap:

This is a really raw poem - very good, full of emotion. I feel like I can relate to what it's trying to express - but seeing as how I'm not the one who wrote it, I obviously don't presume to know exactly. But anyway, the point is that I really liked this poem, and you have real talent.
