Fake a*s love, made in Taiwan cheap bullshit!.......

made in taiwan ("I Lost" Vol. 2)

by Bridgey "FourForADollar" Crewe

 

 

I BET SHE LIKES ME LIKE THIS

Too much of an Alpha Male

 to cry

But the memo came late to my eyes

And what took place

Was a great & disgusting feeling

at the same time

The taste of the sea's salt water in tiny increments on my lips

As I sit and repetitively, yet slowly beat the

top of my head with my fists

 

 

HER LOVE WAS

    MADE IN TAIWAN

 

Authenticity is a mystery and was hidden inside of

    warm kisses & laughs & intimate bubble baths

       and WORDS!!

 

OH MY GOD THE WORDS THAT I HEARD FROM HER

THAT WERE....

MADE IN TAIWAN

 

 

 

She said things like.....

"I'll never leave!" and

"You mean the world to me!"

 

You know, all that bullshit that various popstars continue to sing!

 

Does this mean that I'm stupid

for believing the things that I heard?

 

Her eyes were Made in Taiwan

 

because her eyes is

where I confirmed all those

Goddamn words I heard!

 

 

Her eyes made me feel safe, but just like something you buy that's fake, it would need to be replaced because after a short period of time, it would break

 

Her "love making"

was Made in Taiwan


She screamed like a murder victim

and called out for God to be saved

Then she would seizures

violently and methodically melt

into my sheets as her body would say


That it needed me

 

I thought her body needed me desperately Because she would breath heavily in anticipation of me gently

touching her body ever so lightly

Her Taiwanese eyes telling mine not to stop there, but now I understand it was a tease...


Because I see now it was just sex to her,

but it was love-making for me

 

 

What kind of a monster would do that to someone they claim they love?


Why tell me s**t that you don't mean?

And leave me to dwell inside of a shell

of the powerful man I use to be!!

You've reduced me to a never-was

    A grain of sand on a deserted island's beach

You were my purpose, so without you now, I'm completely worthless!!


THE ACT OF SUICIDE LAUGHS AT EVEN THE MERE SUGGESTION!!!

       I'M TOO INSIGNIFICANT

           TO EVEN KILL MYSELF!!!

 

I'm as little as this text!

               This is how small I've felt

 

A man isn't made to deal

with this kind of pain!

I don't even know where to begin to heal!!!

     I scream obscenities,

but it still hurts

I drink a bottle of Hennessy,

         but it still hurts

I battle mirrors and non-tinted,

 reflective windows

AND IT STILL F*****G..........HURTS!!!!

 

In love, now in pain...all because of her

Her love was costume jewelry, CZ wedding ring,  A swap meet  Prada shirt

And the label reads...

                                 100% bullshit                 

                                Made in Taiwan

This is you not focusing?

I love the flow of emotion I feel your anger, your confusion and your tears
streaming down this piece. You gave your all, YOUR ALL!! all you had, all you
gained, all you wished in the future to obtain you placed it infront of her and
she used to to dress her ego. This poem to me is like the sequel to 'vulnerABLE'
because the same power is there but just in a different way. Intense Bridgey I pray
you feel better.

be blessed

Sometimes it's just better to let loose sometimes. Thank you for sharing this... we've all been there one time or another, right?

I am taken back by this work of Art. I call it a work of Art because it has so many natural key elements; love, angry, sadness, happiness, frustration, and momentum. Bravo! Bravo! Love the ending!

Excellent! I didn't miss the rhyme at all, you don't need it, writing without it sets your words free.

As for the content, I feel the pain and anger and the images you portray with the whole 'made in taiwan' theme are vivid. Nothing to do except write it out and you do it well, very well.

This piece you really expressed your disappointment. Sounds like you was with a fe-MALE! Hey the script flip on you. I am sure that will not get caught up in that game again. Even though you claim there is no flow it read powerful as usual. I will check out a few more.

Sometimes the best writing comes from pure unedited emotions. I think this piece just happens to be one of those times.


"I BET SHE LIKES ME LIKE THIS!!!

I'm too "Alpha Male" to cry

But the memo to my eyes came too late"

That was the hook line and sinker for me. There have been many a nights where my external mask couldn't hold back the tears, then I get mad at myself cause I'm supposed to be a man aka "Alpha Male". This piece really touched me.


"Her body needed me desperately! She would breathe heavily in anticipation of me gently touching her pelvis lightly. Her Taiwanese eyes telling mine not to stop there, but I would tease......I tease her love making with my love making authenticity.



But it was just sex to her.......love making for me"

Thanks for another banger
