Obviously I was raised to believe that love is never enough, it's the other things that are important. Anyone can claim to be in love and many people associate sex with love. I don't. But I've seen the aftermath of those that do, and this if for them, I think. ]]> where happily ever after is the result
no matter how it's written or hidden behind other words.
Spread the blood that has pumped from every broken heart
that never was mended by love,
saturate the pages
and take the tears that fell from eyes
(eyes like the ocean, eyes like the night sky, eyes like whatever)
that no one stopped with gentle fingers
or kissed away with soft loving lips
and use those tears as lube while you degrade me.
Don't make love to me
fuck me atop it all
record it to put online or show to your friends
that pathetic woman that did whatever you ask,

your words wrapping around me in a song
transforming me, changing me, spinning me
into a goddess, radiant, beautiful, beaming
a unicorn, delicate, special, and cherished
each word was a promise of love eternal
I was to loved and be loved forever.

Then I heard the words you spoke of
knowing me, hating me, shaming me,
just a human, flawed, fragile, sinning
a mare, abused, tired, and neglected
feeding the worms inside my belly
with love that never nourishes me.

I wait for you to change once again
hoping you, wishing you, needing you,
knowing you were under some horrible spell
and time, perhaps, could fix you

staring at stars he's staring at too
(laying back while a nymph rides him)
thinking of the love she's searching for
in all the wrong places
with all the wrong people,
hoping skin to skin contact
will bring love like osmosis.
All the while he thinks of porn
naked pictures of hopeless girls
staring into the lens with empty eyes
touching themselves with numb hands
remembering the twisted affection
that smelled like hope
wishing for a chance
to return to a bedroom

She felt like a ghost of a person
and vowed to fix her wound.

It began with objects and bobbles
first toys and dolls and clothes
They did nothing to make it better
instead the hole seemed to grow

Then she discovered the boys
with words so nice and sweet
finally, she thought, a solution
they must have what she needs

She let them touch and own her
she gave them whatever they want
her body, her time, her worth
living the life of bon vivant

Time passed by slowly
and the hole, it still grew
Instead of loved and cherished
she knew instead she was used

Critiques welcome. ]]> And the caress of the sun is your love
I can hear the whisper of your voice dancing in my heart
And I long for your gentle embrace
Because I'm lonely right now, isolated from within
And somehow between the laughter and tears
You managed to grant my heart butterfly wings,
Rather than the sfot but steel centered angel variety
These wings are gossamer thin and leave a silver wake
A path through crowded streets to your form
But I am trapped here and now in the cold walls
Fluorescent lights clicking like softly chattering computer keys
Wishing, longing, desperate for your touch
