Stop the clock
Erase the time
Replace the bad with special memories
As you pause my on-going mind
Pull out my teeth
One by one
Stick pins in my heart
As the dead ends of my hair have mournful fun
Circle round my soul
With venom being thrown
Playing a messy game
One I truly know
Refill my bottle
Let me bleed
Break all my bones
While I replay the tattooed scenes
Take away my pain
The hurt you caused
Watch my face change frame
While my drunken mind turns a sober form
Sip on your poison
I’ll cover my charms
Keep on grinning
As I pretend to laugh
Mascara stains my arm
While I drown in the bath
You return home
Feeling a pleasant sound
As my existence becomes loud
I’m in trouble
Because you violently burst my bubble
Let this moment last
Before I again put on my mask
I’ll keep writing with your pen
As I wonder
Does anything last?

HI SHANNON ~ Thanks for sharing ~ we missed you ! WOW ~ This poem is a more full on attack on the One who burst your BUBBLE ~ and well deserved ! Alas we can't "Stop the Clock" we all have to face the consequences of other's stupid actions and attitudes ! Nothing really lasts ANGEL we just have to learn to swim (and not sink !) with the consequences of the ephemeral society we live in ! I'm 34 and I have spent the last half of my life trying to live in harmony and pleasure with my succession of Lady Friends ~ so far I have NEVER EVER burst a Lady's SACRED BUBBLE and I hope I never will ! Every Blessing ~ Love BRIAN XOX

Shannon, I thought 'Coffee House' was really good, but I think you stepped up your game and wrote something even better. Can't wait to read that promised third one!
As for the content, I don't know the guy, but he doesn't deserve you! Remember the doors, another one will open up soon and you'll be happy again!
Thank you!!! Yes hopefully I will meet someone much better soon 🙂
