stillness gone
waking shattered
head all broken and dismal with
the taste of shame flowing
through my veins
turning on my side
she sleeps like a child
lost to the world and
still part of last nights
allure
stumbling to the bathroom
and pissing like
niagara falls
such a familiar feeling
and knowing pain
that dances on my
back teeth
the streets outside stirring
another day
unraveling
 where nothing feels real
a hangover growing with
every passing second
and
the numbing ache of abandon
haunting me
for everything
i’ve ever done wrong
so i watch her from the doorway
sheets pulled down
around her waist
revealing a tender body
of lust and desire
with all my passion and sin
swimming in her belly
this could be heaven
i think
yet it could also be hell
so i rest my head
next to hers
and
wonder what she’s dreaming
and how she’ll feel
when daylight shines
once more into those
dazzling brown eyes
death it seems
is calling from afar
making me cling
to her with
all the love in the world
