Porcelain Beauty

It’s always hard when someone is in love with the idea of you

Like One false move

One wrong step

And your porcelain image will shatter in front of them,

Cracks will appear

To reveal your weaknesses and your downfalls and your past mistakes

And you will no longer be this out of reach

human

beauty

porn-star.

You are real and raw and you shit and you cry

And you are so imperfect

So wayward

So backwards in your flawlessness

It’s the artificial parts of you that they blood lust after

Not the thoughts, emotions and feelings that overwhelm

you

It scares them that a pretty little thing can feel so much

And so

Of course they run away

As fast as they can

With the hope that cracks do not appear

in the next porcelain beauty.

The Devil In Me

‘Cause I was filled with poison

And blessed with beauty and rage’

In the most industrial sense of the word

Black smoke engulfed mess of a woman,

You still stayed with my broken glass

Heart,

and my chaotic mind

Reckless

Soul sold to the devil.

I told you to stay,

Stay away

From my lace licked lies

Of red lipped neuroticism,

Do not love me

I said

For You will never be free,

With the devil in me.

-Tina Rose

 

 

The Yellow Daffodils

Yellow daffodils that matched her dress

The sun in her eyes as she lay down to rest

She waited and waited for him to arrive

But the day it grew cold

As she opened her eyes,

Where are you? She wondered

Heartbeat in mouth

The sun it was going

Tears they fell down

Creases in dress as she whispered his name

It was spring when he left

And spring when he came.

– Tina Rose

A Tale Untold

She has a restless soul

A heart of gold

A messy mind

A tale untold,

He took her heart

But not her mind,

Though he’s unkind

She still does shine.
