Love & Anguish

his masculine fingers feel like daggers  
ripping me apart with each caressing stroke  
underneath the scars unravel the cruel history  
of stab wound love and poisonous kisses.  
 
trapped within these chocolate tinted eyes  
remain the wasted tears and heartache.  
all taken for granted, left with an open sore void  
desiring nothing but to cover the gaping hole.  
 
you stole the most vital part, my heart,  
a trophy to keep always with you.  
and still you linger before withering eyes  
as your vision dies away.  
 
now the air is plagued with lies and deception  
a new soul has left my breast stained crimson  
from the nights of anguish, festered and healed  
this scar tinted flesh will be for eternity,  
 
you have washed away the guilt  
in the fast ocean of my tears.  
the memories will always remain  
and the mist of my caress will drown you.
