So She Does

He winks at her, bemused
She lies bare on his cold, hard floor
Eyes, scarred and abused
Walking over to the dresser, his back is turned
Stand up; hold the tunic to your chest
It’s loose
You’re loose
Yet again
Risk it
Gamble it all
Venture through shady halls
He’s worth it, you need his scent
His blissful, broken bed
“Run, run away” mind yells,
“You’ll get him, just stay” heart bawls,
“A few more screws and you’re on your way”
So she does
All for his love
Just for one feeble touch
She does
Last one, now
Final user
She allows him to consume her
The greenery slapped onto her wrist
Is a more pleasing sight
One last, emotionless goodbye kiss
And she’s off to prepare for her flight
On the trembling plane
Don’t hesitate
Apply the rouge to your punctured face
Hello Pretty
Hello Pretty
Finally stepping down
Linger there, unseen
You’ve anguished and waited so long
He’ll be here; time to dwell won’t do you any wrong
Use the while to watch
The endless, faceless figures that pass you by
Don’t abuse the time to drawl
About his never-ceasing fire
To the endless, faceless figures that pass you by
Ecstasy, it must be ecstasy
Heart pounds faster
Too much blood rushes to her brain
The exhilaration overwhelms her
And she starts to hyperventilate
Him. Flawless
So beautifully painful
Fall. Shameless
The breath’s been knocked out of her
His eyes. Powerful
And so intense when they would bore into hers
His face.
Buried in another’s silky hair
“Run, run away” mind yells,
“You can’t have him, don’t stay” heart bawls,
“Melt, fade again” soul cries.
So she does
Never to feel his love
Radiate
Forever to crave a touch
That she’ll never get
She does
Back on the wobbly plane
She begins to suffocate
Feel the hot tears wash away the rouge from your face
Hello pretty
