White chalk

by Espoirfailed   Feb 10, 2007


No going back now,
The wall of dreadful deeds
has grown far too high to climb.
The only thing we ever did together
Was build that wall,
The only thing we did,
Destroyed it all.

Your poison rigged hand,
Wrote your venomous plans,
As you trace the outline of my silhouette
In a white chalk,
So pure in contrast.

And glide your fingers wickedly over my legs,
In an attempt to tease,
And my heart flutters
As my shoulders shudder,
I'm not going here again.
Or am I?

Longing so much,
That one more brutal soft touch
Could snap my bones,
And massacre my soul,
If it's not done already,
Take a deep breath
And breathe steady.

Your drawings complete
As I fall to sleep,
You cover my mouth with your hand
So that I never wake.
You know I'll never understand.
My eyes peeled back
Engage yours.
And now we are happy
And now I understand.

    Wow, that was fantastic, i really enjoyed reading this. It has a great flow, and its very visual. You use words like "Your poison rigged hand,
    Wrote your venomous plans," And it is nice because it is different. Your set of vocalbulary makes it fun and more interesting. It's great! keep it up.
