Array ( [sid] => 18668 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Plastic Flowers [time] => 2003-06-06 13:05:00 [hometext] => For those who pretend to be something that they're not...
It's not one of my better poems, but it gets the point across, don't you think? [bodytext] => Plastic flowers,
Pasty skin,
Artificial love,
A taste of sin,
I can see through you,
This life you live,
I bet fire will melt you,
Now what do you have to give?

Your existence is fake,
Your eyes are phony,
All you do is take,
Everyone should think you’re honey.
Well guess what -
I can see through you,
And this life that you live,
If I bend you enough I bet I could break you,
Now what do you have to give?

Your heart is empty,
Your synthetic blood is cold,
That plastic skin looks hefty,
And this game you play is getting old.

Everyone can see through you,
This so-called life you live,
If we leave you out to dry too long, I bet you’d crack,
And now what do you have to give?
Lies, misconceptions,
Falsified love...
Broken hearts and friendships, that’s all you’ve done.
Your existence is the epitome of fake,
Your eyes are manufactured,
All you do is take,
And now you can see that your plan is fractured.

I can see through you,
I can see you -
You and your plastic flowers...
Your pasty skin...
Your artificial love...
I can see you... Your personal sin... [comments] => 9 [counter] => 1201 [topic] => 21 [informant] => ravenblack_phoenix [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

Plastic flowers,
Pasty skin,
Artificial love,
A taste of sin,
I can see through you,
This life you live,
I bet fire will melt you,
Now what do you have to give?

Your existence is fake,
Your eyes are phony,
All you do is take,
Everyone should think you’re honey.
Well guess what -
I can see through you,
And this life that you live,
If I bend you enough I bet I could break you,
Now what do you have to give?

Your heart is empty,
Your synthetic blood is cold,
That plastic skin looks hefty,
And this game you play is getting old.

Everyone can see through you,
This so-called life you live,
If we leave you out to dry too long, I bet you’d crack,
And now what do you have to give?
Lies, misconceptions,
Falsified love...
Broken hearts and friendships, that’s all you’ve done.
Your existence is the epitome of fake,
Your eyes are manufactured,
All you do is take,
And now you can see that your plan is fractured.

I can see through you,
I can see you -
You and your plastic flowers...
Your pasty skin...
Your artificial love...
I can see you... Your personal sin...
