Boys Who Melt Like IceCream.

Lindsay and John. "dude, you should rename it "this f*****g blows""

He's still got her virginity

and she's still got his Children Of Bodom shirt.

She's got Chloe in her backpocket,

and a tub of Moose Tracks to stop the hurt.

They cut out a red paper heart

and he held it under the water until the bubbles stopped.

Made her phone sing at 1:46 AM

her stomach flipped, she farted, and dropped.

She's cutting letters of the alphabet into her flesh

hoping to dull and replace the pain

She calls her bee eff eff Chloe,

whos sprinting to her in the pouring rain.

She's playing ps2 to distract herself

trying to keep him off of her mind

while her bee eff eff sits on writers cafe

living someone elses breakup on rewind.

good stuff, but i don't think i can fit "chloe f*****g pwns" on my arm. it's hard to make the letters small enough to fit them all and still be legible :)

but yeah, other people's relationship problems suck, and no signif. other is worth doing that over.

[Last Lying Look]

ahaha. I like this poem. It's edgy. I read your profile & I think I'm really going to enjoy reading your work.

you definitely sound like a good friend. (haha i won't mention how "bee eff eff" confused me because that would be sad and embarrassing. so you can't see it here, inside these parentheses. nope.)

They cut out a red paper heart
and he held it under the water until the bubbles stopped.
(awesome)

[Hotel Mornings]

The title of the poem is very clever...that's always a good start. I love the lead in sentence and the lines: "They cut out a red paper heart//and he held it under the water until the bubbles stopped." The imagery is good and original and is just a clever line. good read.

haha you're awesome. tell her the letters will confuse waiters later when real life takes over and shes just simply tring to order dinner, scribble on some shoes instead, trust me, my sisters shoulder to this day at 28 and married still says I loaf kunt (i love kurt)

[Zatoichi]
