Poison Often Strikes Twice Guess my face is not the first to break, The heart beats on and on, My breath is sharp just like your knife, These eyes have seen too much, Your words are misery, So I just keep on staring, Did we forget to wake up, The dreams are a reflection of life, Poison often strikes twice, Stop screaming and don't breathe, My life only has one more scene, The lies between your lips, I'm standing on my heart, Choke once, choke twice, Your waves have drowned me now. a bit shorter than usual, but reviews would be appreciated...
A vivid short poem, I like it. Although I think the one line would be better if you said: "The lies between your lips, 'Are' standing on my heart" I thought that would have been cool! Good job!
i admire poetry with no story line. something that comes from the heart. something that strikes the reader. and this is one of those. the lines just seemed to end abruptly, but otherwise, it's great!
