Fading Melody

Fluorescent acquiescence,
Lingers undramatically here,
Beside me.
As you walk away, in admonishment,
Acknowledging my incandescent apology.

'I'm sorry' I said.
You shook your head.

A midnight waning moon watched us part acrimoniously,
Deliberately condoning me,
Congratulating beams of light celebrating this
Cacophony of lost intimacy.

Why?
Like this, tonight?

Distantly, you now despise me,
Intricately, you think you are wise to me,

But why?
Tonight?

Sadistically? Surprisingly nihilistically you want to spite me,
Indite me with your ritualistic accusations of infidelity,
And consequently,
Leave me, abandoned

Here,
Alone,
with only the sea,
for companionship, and only the waves to surreptitiously
comfort me.

The sound is like the resignation in your eyes;

A sombre, fading melody
to our lives.

You Hurt The Worst

Just leave me alone. As if I needed more pain. You try to bring sunshine. Instead you bring rain. You're never very good. At knowing when to go. I don't know how to tell. You hurt more then you know.

Remember

Nothing I do is right, We argue and debate and fight. I'm always wrong in what I do, I'll never be good enough for you. It's her again, are you the same. Constantly giving me the blame.

Twisted

Some get it so twisted. You won't own me. You won't even notice. But still your insisting. Always getting it twisted. Some get it so twisted. You don't want me. You don't even breed.

Nothing To Gain

See my words are burning. They scorch to the touch. I am quite disappointed though. Because it won't hurt you much. You ignore all I speak of. All the words I say. Because really you won't.

Sorry

I didn't mean to. It just slipped out. I didn't think it was a secret. Otherwise I wouldn't shout. I didn't mean to break it. Your heart, I meant. I didn't try to hurt you.

Beautiful stuff, I love the wordplay is this, great lexicon! ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ˜Š

Gorgeous words ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜˜

'Fluorescent acquiescent' has gotta be one of my favourite lines ever, that's just perfect.

I absolutely love this. I wish I could like over and over again. This should be top of the charts. The flow, the questioning, the choice of words is faultless. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š

@eddie12309 what Ed said, it's so good I've taken a screenshot to keep it. It's one of my favourite pieces ever. ๐Ÿ’œโค๐Ÿ’œ
