screw it all if life gives u lemons do what ever you feel the need to do with them.


Broken lies
Broken Dreams
Broken Butterflies
That no one sees
Hidden away
With only one key
No light for anyone to see
Slowly dying
Peace by peace
And no one will ever know what that means

"You can be the ripest, juiciest peach in the world, and there's still going to be somebody who hates peaches." -Dita Von Teese

Seems short and simple at first but after reading, I know it's anything but. This is a very moving poem. It is also very beautiful and sad. Your ideas are connected in a smooth, flowing way that leaves me wanting more. Especially your last line, "And no one will ever know what that means," was very powerful. What a twist. Well, keep writing!
