we'll be collapsed... by ~HelzCullen:iconHelzCullen:



take me to your hideout
with your crystalclearcasualties
where red herrings thrive
and each and every lie is
welcomed with its own complimentary
mint.

I hear it's cold downtown,
alone.

I hear it's full of highs labelled
eternal
that last an hour, maybe two.
depends how much you spend.

I hear it's condescendingly flashy,
the greenorangeyellowbluepinkred
blinding black lights terrorising
the streets on an all-night patrol.

but that's okay.


you'll be collapsed in the gutter,
you'll be drowning in flaming fury and sick
lies and money and trouble and colours
and cold sweat and senses and nonsenses,



but I'll be there to hold your hand.

Full title: we'll be collapsed in the gutter

>_> THEY'RE FRIENDS. Hah! I win! No romance again P: bwahaha.

(I'm really losing it, I swear.)


Edit: Okay, guys, this may be one of my most 'famous' poems, but it really, really sucks. So if you like this, try some of my other workds, like... I don't know, [link] or [link] SRSLY PLZ.

Hooray for platonic love~ :dance: So glad to hear that they're friends.
I just love the flow if this poem. :glomp:
:iconhelzcullen:
Yep, hooray indeed! :D I'm trying to stay away from the lovey-dovey stereotypical poetry nowadays.

Thank you (: I think I've written much better, but I've also written a lot worse.

And I asked myself about the present: how wide it was, how deep it was, how much was mine to keep.
