Washroom

Another masochist...one of emotion. Rather a personal experience, if I may say. The one who contradicts themselves endlessly...

The paper runs wet against my
Fingertips
As I smile
Looking at my new friends
Cut out with scissors
An umbrella protects my skin
From the roaring water drops
Falling
The cold flood tickles my toes
In the porcelain bed
Red rubies blossoming
On my hands
My friends
Torn apart
Their white wrinkled pieces
Scattered on the tile
Anger written on their blank faces
Blood dripping gently
From the walls
My beautiful friends
Made of white paper soaked
On my skin
Dead
So they can leave me be
The water touches my face
And a tear rolls down my
Cheek
And a smile across my
Lips
The plastic of my umbrella
Brushing against my paling face
My kingdom of floods
The sink running red
Dripping
And my tub of solitude
Overflowing
And I laugh at my perfection
Tearing the head off
Of my friend
Cutting out another one
Who I will
Love
The last floating away
With my perfect
World of
Blood

This is artistic and wonderful. Beautiful expression of emotion, and I love that it's one of those poems that will mean something different to everyone who reads it.

whoa, lots of crazed intensity in these words.
is it weird that I really like this piece? hmm.

anyway, it's very well written, fluid, and you've described it all so clear and vivid.. truly tho, it is the emotions and state of mind that stands out the most from it

I'm not quite sure I got the same thing out of it as everyone else, but I still thought it was a marvelous poem! It, like the last review states, really does catch your attention. I also loved the word choice. You always write such amazing poetry that I almost find mysterious in some ways (but it's a good thing when I say it :3). Great job, friend! Never stop writing.

I thoroughly enjoyed this poem! A very complete and thought out piece. Wonderful word choice, very descriptive without being too much. This a really great and inspirational idea! So creative! Gorgeous! Thank you for sharing.
