With a kiss goodbye, one that lingered on my lips,
Three very long, hectic days spread out before me...

Beads of sweat run one by one
Down a quivering neck...

Where the river parts,
My heart does lie...

Her hand slides down my arm,
Fingertips grazing over my skin...

I feel my knees wobble
As my breath shakes...

A soft light penetrates the otherwise dark room,
Angry lyrics begin to lull me to sleep...

A low growl escapes through taut lips,
Her eyes burning with a suppressed roaring flame...

Eyes once glazed over with pupils dilated
As she finds a way to ease her anxious pain...

Years of a friendship that has never
Strayed from being anything more...

She wandered throughout the empty house,
Her fingers readjusting perfectly placed vases...

You turn your back on me
And yet, I am the one who betrayed you...

The water runs over bare skin,
Skin that is icy to the touch...
