Nicole D'Settemi Poems

He told me:

I was the best bag of heroin he ever tried
When he spoke to me,
...

Let's pretend
Life isn't painful
And, love conquers all
Let's say;
...

I watch our love dissipate
Smoke in the air
Like everything else,
I'm sure it lingers somewhere
...

May has come, a broken Spring
Fractured girl, broken wings
Test the Spring, Spring failure
Spring Mess, may I change here?
...

A Porcelain Doll
Dressed like the Grim Reaper
In this pit of pure darkness,
I fall even deeper
...

There is a world I search for
A planet, I try to find
I'm searching for a world
One that's color blind
...

One Pill
Two Pills
Three Pills
FOUR.
...

Body Mangled
Cranium crushed
Blood dripping
Legs and arms twitch
...

I just have one question—
One thing I want to know
Was she beautiful, when you cheated?
Tell me:
...

What chances of such an occurrence; a story—?
One of love, or is it?
While I question its level of authenticity or my own peculiar hallucinations,
My neck is shining in the dark
...
