She / It *
Folder:
Senior Year College Just minutes ago,
She was a starlet, angelic
A dimming star
Crowned with an asterisk
She had climbed, gently
Naked skin pressed, sliding, clinging to mine
Her comfort has a stench while
She smiles like a nurse -
But I've gained the eyes of a tyrant
What a pest
Fingertips slip over my arm
Numb and oblivious
She moves her mouth towards mine
I turn away, staring at the wall
Like I really want your sinning lips
After the act they committed
Below my hips
Euphoric seconds blackened
When beckoned back by sermons
That flicker on the television in the dark
I wish I was joking
Minutes ago, she was a starlet angel
I drank her innocence
Until she lived to please, harlot
Disdain; that's her new name
All I seek is sleep, respite
I guess halos were meant to be broken
