Click hereI wait in the darkness
As she moves
Fluid in motion
I catch my breath
She waits
For the curtain to fall
She devours the truth
And spits me out
I lay tangled
She curses our life
For what it was
And what it is
She hides the knife
In her front pocket
Concealed
She sharpens her tongue
As razors split open
The reason I built to live
Deeper now
She turns the dagger
Clockwise
Time stands still
As I lie
Awaiting the darkness
The curtain rises
And so does she
The play will go on
Behind closed doors
Behind the scenes
Her spite runs deep with malice
She turns and walks away
High-heeled stilettos
No mark on my name
This role we play
We'll play again
Forever
thought it was very powerful stuff.
poetry is imho really tough to display as it is more emotionally personal than prose.
