linger

 
the urgency of your need fucked my mind
it pulled on me with a greed so great I fought to draw breath
my god, it hurt to feel your want
 
you pull at me from the center of your storm
it brew in your depths and like a tornado sucked me in
my soul warned me to fight bare knuckled
my flesh dare me deeper in
 
I could see your internal struggle
and it shook me to my core
I was swept into the madness by intrigue
you were the distraction I craved down deep
I wept knowing the truth of this
 
in agony I masturbated to your lust
I knew hate intimately
I was just his type
 
no one wore quiet rage better than you
I look at your façade and knew you were cruel beneath it all
still, I couldn't walk away from the burning inferno of your passions
 
I walk into the fire to meet the real man you are
I had to know the honesty of you
behind the carefully laid secrets
 
I met you on a cobbled road
each stone told a story of your past
it led me to your hidden resolve
a man who tells no lies, tells no tales
your honesty was wrapped in possessions
you were stalwart in your delivery of yourself  
and I knew this to be true
but you fucked like the devil
and brought out the bitch in me
 
in my softness I glow
you look away so I wouldn't see you cry
the moment passed,  
I was washed out to your sea of women had
 
where you could forget me forever
