Bitter


I thought of three different expressions containing the word "bitter"; that was all I needed to put them into context and start writting something... which I started doing, last June.

And "yes!", I have all the (...) in my black book.

bitter lemons

"Bittersweet, the words you utter
Swiftly as they go
(...)
Once friends, now foes

Bitter enemies, once lovers
Not over, as it shows
(...)
Not fainting, it grows

I can still smell your scent,
I can still feel your breath,
And all the bitterness of the unreal it feels.

Bitter tears, uncovered
It will still show
(...)
No one knows

(A) bitter man discovers
What his pride swallows
Glitter to gutter
Never letting his fears go

I still don't know what you meant,
Yet I know why you have left,
And all the bitterness of how it really hurts.
"

- in "Bitter", by Hyug Badox, since June 2010.
