Poem -

no splinters here ❤

he said his heart was broken
but we found no proof
it continued to beat
through the days of his youth

said his brain was a glass cage
that shattered each day
that his body was not made 
in this world to stay

but we found no proof
we found no proof at all
no glass shards in the hallway
no blood on the wall

said his smiles
were all sad smiles
but we found no proof
and his teeth were white pearls
that were so loved, so no truth

in that then.

You the queen of Cosmofunnel 🤣🤣🤣🤣🌹 ❤️

Wonderful work once again, Marion. I think I am running out of words with you. What else can I say? That you’re the craziest, most excellent, the best noir poet i’ve ever encountered in my life???
Still not enough, Because this is not just a writing. It’s real, it’s your pain expressed. Love , B

This must be just about the saddest and most perfectest bit of poetry I have come across for a very, very long time .. I don't mind admitting that the first or the second time I read it, my eyes watered involuntarily .. I guess you caught me either off guard which I suspect unlikely, or whilst having one of my own moments .. I wish I could change things for you .. and I wish I could award more than a like x5 stars and a pin .. honest x
