in the evenings
we make do
we soak in
normalcy, flip through
flat words construed
as the real thing
when you’re
eating the mattress
this disappears
and
like a sick doe
you lie shallow
choking my name
through silent
teeth, you
wonder how long
i smirk instead
of bellow, leaving
dark traces
where i please
and fleecing your cries
smothering your gasps
i love how
desperate you
sometimes sound
there’s no getting out now
not until i say

cool write seems a bit evil to me so i love it the lines i think stick out the best in this have got to be
"i smirk instead
of bellow, leaving
dark traces"
and
"there’s no getting out now
not until i say", well done keep on writting and peace out, -freedom of soul-
