pennylane731's Diaryland Diary

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

permanent marker

proof in print
confessing sins spilt from lips
that drank the kiss in
chocolate and wine

and i dug this deep
to find explanations
that don't answer questions --
i just need to know that i'm better than best

permanent marker
stains me
modern-day scarlet letters
spelling it out for everyone to read
how much do i have to burn or bleed
to drain myself free?

i have done nothing to be ashamed of;
they'd say that i'm good, so good,
our angel
(then why do i still feel the need to die?)

rewind the tape --
i feel the unspoken promises
and none of them are mine
