H-E-A-R-T-B-R-E-A-K-E-R

She cuts her hair

And dyes it black,

Hoping to give dear old dad

A heart attack.

 

She’s got a pretty little diamond

For each poor bloke

Whose heart she ever took

And broke.

 

She paints her lips red like cherries -

She tries but can’t resist

Branding a boy’s body

With her kiss.

 

“Heartbreaker” could have been

Sewed onto her studded leather jacket,

If the whole town didn't already know why she

Causes such much racket.

 

And she rolls her eyes at

Drew’s stares in the Supermarket

 

At one time, he held her heart in his hands;

He dropped it.

Great poem to read :) I thought it had a cute playful but "taunting and dangerous" tone :)

I love that song!!
And you conveyed the feelings so well in this poem!
You said it was rusty, but its really not! :)
Glad your back! I've miss your work!

That song has been my anthem for the past month! And thank you! I'm getting somewhat back into the swing of things, but I've got a ways to go. I have missed you and your works, as well!!

I'm not gonna lie, I've missed my work as well. lol
I hate writers block. I wrote something the other day, but it's quite rubbish.
