Her lithe body
is euphoria
-framed by another.
Smooth porcellain skin
shines with her sweet sweat.
Trickling down
like crystaline drops
of beauty,
her tears are a foreign sight,
a strange and unknown sensation
to callused fingers.
Rose petal lips open
in a silent scream
escaping from
a cage of skin and bones
whose soul reaches out
and captivates
the passive watchers,
lures them
in this downward spiral...
Author notes
Written more than a year ago, I found this again in my old files. =) I hope I can write like this again. FYI, this demon is loneliness or depression, whichever one hits you when you read it anyway. Thanks for reading!

Magnificent Write!!
What expressions you release upon these pages!!
Very powerful and the Rose petal lips...
I love those words!!
a cage of skin and bones...
What a description
I believe there are days where everybody
wants to let the words fall to the floor..
and picked up instead of stepped on....
Thank you for sharing this piece!
Wish You the best always!!
Many blessings too
Appreciate your visit and kind words
and much love~ Desire~*~

I would have never related this to depression or loneliness ( I did sense the feeling of pain in it though), but that is the beauty of either writing or reading...we all can interprete anything differently as long as it makes some sort of sense to us. Your word-usage is great
