! Creative Writing & Poetry ! and Verses Dark

...she took her shears
wiped her tears
and said “goodbye, you bloody locks
and ruby lips,
i’m gonna sway my hips
and that Prince
won’t know what hit him…”

She cropped her hair
and lined her eyes in kohl
pulled on her jeans
and cranked the stereo

dipped her sugar-cube
and sipped her drink
licked her lips
and before she had time
to think
grabbed her boots
and her purse
walked across the floor
looked around
and said
“I won’t be coming back here
anymore…”

    Haha! I love this! Especially:
    ’’...she took her shears
    wiped her tears
    and said “goodbye, you bloody locks
    and ruby lips,
    i’m gonna sway my hips
    and that Prince
    won’t know what hit him…”
    Damn attitude!
