It.
I was broken.
Bruised.
Busted.
No hope left.
Its eyes,
friendly.
Its smile,
welcoming.
Teeth?
Carnivorous.
We danced,
hand in hand.
A dance of
laughter,
rage,
pity,
nothing.
It sucked me dry.
Pain?
None.
Pleasure?
Ditto.
Empty.
Stolen.
Forever,
me.
Bruised.
Busted.
No hope left.
Its eyes,
friendly.
Its smile,
welcoming.
Teeth?
Carnivorous.
We danced,
hand in hand.
A dance of
laughter,
rage,
pity,
nothing.
It sucked me dry.
Pain?
None.
Pleasure?
Ditto.
Empty.
Stolen.
Forever,
me.
