“Make me sway,” she says,
“like a pendulum on a rainy day.”
Her hips do the motions her words portray.
That look in her eyes gets you every time.
And it kills you from the inside.

“Scratch, scratch, scratch.
Let me feel you.”
Paper cuts—like they’re the new in thing.
“Trust me baby, baby, baby,
they burn so good.”
