Lack of sleep
turns into lack of tolerance
I have for you
right now.
My restless body
moves under pale shadows
of these warm sheets
and I eagerly attempt to ignore
the approaching morning
in order to forget
that
my sunsets are the colour of your heart
that got violently pierced
by skyscrapers
of an unfamiliar land,
where I fly
high,
above the first glimpse
of the London dawn
to steal your sky away,
just like I took your heart
that day
on a journey to nowhere.
With me.
I teased
and left you wanting me
a little bit more
than you did two minutes ago,
but it wasn’t enough
to make you lose your mind,
all because we both know
I made this choice for us
on purpose
and
spoiled the taste
of my imaginary whispers
and kisses on your mouth
to stop us moving forward.
Addictions require dedication

Thank you
I really like the end…so creative, yet simply said.
It’s the most powerful way – simple. Complicated words sound too fake 🙂
Amazing! 🙂
Thanks so much! Means a lit coming from somebody with some strong images, painted with words!
I teased and left you wanting me a little bit more than you did two minutes ago…
Yes, you do tease us with your writing. 🙂
Do I really? 🙂
perfect conclusion ! Loved it! Creative enough to keep you wanting more!
🙂 thank you.. Glad you approve!
Hohoho. The whole is really good, and the ending… Hmm, does being amazing more than Rod Stewards trousers made from leopard skin tell something? Well then, to state that is still to say nothing xD (If that makes sense at all)
Hahahaha! It actually made sense, thanks! Glad to see you here, still need to catch up with your blog, saw you had quite a few updates since I last checked!
Great photo, very moody

very strong words 🙂
Thank you… Yes, slightly moody picture to go with some strong decision words 🙂
Excellent, Ms. Oh so Chatty Owl…a razor’s edge precisely wielded, quite the enjoyable prose. Thank you for sharing
Oh So Chatty is living up to her name lol
I’ve been so busy lately that I haven’t had time to read my favorite bloggers. I am so glad to be here. Your words always touch me in such a way!
Thats ok, kinda in the same boat myself, always too busy for everything!
Im always glad you enjoy my words. I do love yours too, you know!
Thank you! Have a wonderful day.
That finish is to some extend devastating for someone. But maybe better now than never.
I thought about this piece in two ways. It might sound devastating for the “receiving end”, but then again, when one cuts off ties with another, it makes the other person realise that he/she wasn’t wanted, which should lead to a happier life from now on. 🙂
It will of course, but the process there is always tough.
True..
You don’t like commitments…? Isn’t that a female complaint about guys thing usually? 😉
In the words of the immortal Robert Palmer: “gonna hafta face it – you’re addicted to lurve.”
Keep up the good work!
Hey stranger. Been a while, huh? Furry one is really keeping the distance!
Anyway. Yes, i do have many qualities as men, but i guess that’s what makes me more of a woman too.
Wonderful… again! I’m in awe, truly…
Thanks… You know how much i appreciate your comments.
You deserve every single kind one you really do
Dedication, commitment, passion or addiction…. and balance!
Good Monday Chattyowl and many greetings 🙂
Soul.
Hey! Thanks for stopping by again! Yes, dedication is a tough thing. 🙂
Tough. I bet I could chew through you 😉
see where flirting gets you –
Where? 😛
Even ends require commitment, no matter the means. … ironic that restlessness seems to bookend start and finish of relationships… Something is always on the line…
Im not so sure.. Well, yes, ends require commitments, but they are usually short-lived, because after the end has taken place, no more commitment needed 🙂
The commitment to the end is the constant effort required that ensure that all doors of future potential opportunity (no matter how appealing) stay closed… Since many folks will persistently try to open them, break all locks, she will need to stay committed against those futures … Often the commitment isn’t just to convince self but rather to also constantly protect self from other’s contradictory ideas…
I really thought I misunderstood you before, but yes, now I know what you meant. Wise B as always 🙂
Fabulous description of such a beautiful disaster.
Maybe not a disaster, but surely a sad thing..
disaster in the sense of heartache and sadness…beautifully written, of course. Sucked me in to reflect on what i refer to as my “beautiful disaster”. Love your writing, love.it.
This was marvelous!
Thanks Hook! Glad you thought so! 🙂

Great finish
It has a hint of sad disappointment. Maybe she wrong, who knows.
We can never know. We do what we do. The moment we take another path, the path we were on no longer exists, so it becomes academic. It was what you do now that is important … and interesting.

I like this part the most!
For someone with high standards and difficult to please as you, this is a great compliment to me.. Thanks!
Don’t mention it!

:):)
Spectacular!
Thanks dear! 🙂 glad you thought so!
I liked the pacing in this, the details leading up to the sad bit true end. Glad I am not on the other end of purposeful choices.
“addictions require dedication.”
aint that the truth! 🙂
It so is….
Oh my….this one hit home
