Blue Eyed Liar

Short but I think it's pretty to the point.

Crystal blue,

Crimson red,

Bleeding lines in the lies you've said.

You're a cold hearted soul,

And I'm not quite sure what to make of it,

My thoughts swarm with all the happiness you've bit...

Off of me.

Break off another chunk, why don't you?

I see temptation in those blues of yours.

Might it be lust, too?

Ruin another wrist, darling,

Every time you make another mistake,

"You never learned" I say,

"You never learned" I say.

So play another melancholy berceuse,

And stare at your ugly scars,

And remember all the lifes you've ruined,

And the friendship that was once ours.

Crystal blue lies,

Disguised within your eyes.

Blood bleeding red,

Every time you invite another stranger in bed...

You've conveyed some pretty strong feelings here. Makes we wonder what you were going through while writing this. This is good work. Well written and constructed in a way that it pulls the reader out of a comfort zone and gives a violent shake. Thank you for sharing this.

The similarity of first stanza and then with last stanza's good and great to read to a reader.
nice work this time.

'break off another chunk' is awkward in the best way possible. makes the reader squirm and feel this awful feeling of helplessness. i think you conveyed your idea very well and this is one of your best in my opinion:) thanks for sharing.
