Dear you,

I am sorry. I have accidentally
                                                             fallen in love
                            knocked over your
                                                          favorite
                                                                                      snow-globe.


It shattered



          My glass castle
                               built on a rock
                                                 meant to stay strong and never


                                                                                      sink

                                                                                                down.

                                                                          No one was expecting a shove;
                                                                          a pair of strong hands to pry

                                      open

my ice shell
hiding a pearl.

                                                                       Take me to paradise (Eden.)                             Kiss.

                                                   Where glitter queens reside,
                                                             dancing dancing dancing
                                                                      spinning spinning spinning
                                                                              transforming transforming transforming.



Sparkling water to apple of Eve.

                                                                                               Your carpet shimmers,
               Shivers at the brilliancy,

                                                                                               Catching the sun,
               Hiding the shadows,

                                                                                               Smiling, provocatively.
               Smirking, at corruptions.

                                                                    Will you anti-freeze me?

       So like I said,
                                    the diluted solution now stains                  me
            you
         forever.

                                                                                      Hard to see
                                                                                        Hard to hear
                                                                                     Hard to touch
                                                                                        Hard to guess
                                                             Easy to smell
                                                                                     Among the glitter
                                                            sweet music
                                                                                     Lies poison
                                                            disease
                                                                                     Toxic eyes
                                                            destruction

                      it
                         was
                                     mesmerizing
        I
              could
                          not
                                   stop
                                              the
                                                        monster
                                                                           from
                                                                                                                       tasting
                                                                                     magnificent liquid wi
                                                                                     th so much desire so
                                                                                     much need so much
                                                                                     longing that with ea
                                                                                     ch opening of the mo
                                                                                     uth I soared with ea
                                                                                     gles and stared dow
                                                                                     n at the gates of hea
                                                                                     ven only to suddenly
                                                                                     fall deep deep into    
                                                                                                                       love

                   I'm sorry.
              I'll pay for the carpet.
                                                                                      Just don't blame him.


                                                        Love,               ?



                                                                                                            Peaches.
                                                                                      waiting to be
                                                                                                   blushed and bruised

This was meant for my journal, but the spacing was wrecked.

Why do they put anti-freeze in a snow globe?

It leaves a really nasty smell.

Sighh.

Antifreeze, really?

Being the sort of person who doesn't understand more than half of any one poem, I will say that visually, it is a work of art all in itself. I will also say that I love the blurry, distorted feeling (partialy deriving from the spacing and staggered lines). And, finally, I do so love the chemistry references.
Final note:
If you screencap it and zoom out enough, the text sorta forms a flower.
:iconsherrabelle:
Thank you! :hug:
The formatting is very frustrating..
I'm still trying to get it to look like I imagined,
but dA is not cooperating.

No animals were harmed in the making of this poem.
Although I did read online that a lot of pets are
killed by stuff like this.

Yup. Seems like a conspiracy.

Thank you. :hug: Distorted is exactly what I was going for.

Haha, I must try that.
