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

 

 

 

 

 

 

Author's Note

No rhythm, no flow, just emotions. I'm not focused.......

Reviews

[Walkingblind]

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

I tasted the ocean's salt water in tiny increments on my lips

man i just try so hard to put lines that stand out and strike a chord in my review but when i read your work there just becomes too many to highlight and praise! I think the best writes come when you just let your hands type or your pen go free on paper. Like this piece, you bring something from deep within when writing in such a way. It's clear that you are a natural.

And my favorite "fake shirt" ( should it be fake s**t?)

Or, was it the prada shirt?

Anyway, I think this is good. Seemed focused to me.

Love hurts.

And that's that.

the way ur words jus flowed is what got to me ... that raw emotion, that unyielding pain ... it all made me feel exactly how you felt ... i mean everyone goes through dis, everyone faces that one person who you fall head over heals for and yet for them there's sumthing missing ... the confusion you feel, the hurt in your heart ... it takes alot to get ova it ... but like they say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger...

I've been here in my life. It's amazing how women think that they may be the only gender that goes through these emotions, but every now and then, a man can be bit too. You have no fear of releasing your emotions and I give you credit for that. Writing is the best therapy. Continue to use it. Great piece here.

[~angelalala~]

this is really creative, i love the concept, the metaphor here & i think you've executed it well. this was another really raw & intense write from you. You are definately tapping into your darker emotions. we have all been there. we've all met one of these types, we've all had to get over one, at one point in our lives. i can tell you i have. you've been writing alot of very heart-broken, sad pieces lately, which you do well by the way. for as entertaining & charming as most of your work is, you can also go the totally opposite direction, & take us on a journey into the darkest depths of your being. i love how you can really open up, so honestly, admit your hurt, with no fear whatsoever. another intense, emotional write. good job on this.

[Nik]

The emotion running through this poem was deep and felt. Thank you for sharing as we can appreciate your anger, sadness, and torment condensed into words as art in perfection.

[Lepadah]

Oh baby... love can be a B***H. Real love is a beautiful thing when we are honest. I feel this piece really I FEEL YOU. I left that love s**t alone long time ago now I'm free to feel it.
