Dangerous Business

She's fingering the  s.t.i.t.c.h.e.s  on her arms & torso
trying to pull herself back together;;
    && she can still taste the fear
          [splashing against her throat like bile]
      & still can't calm the shakes down.

& His weight was [suffocating]uncomfortable
      ["Think about what I've been miss-miss-missing out on
        all this time..."]

"We should stop-"

But the [careless] kisses & [clumsy] cares
drown out the noise...
h-his[ITS meandering] hands make her flesh crawl;;;
& he.doesnt.know.shes.biting.back.a.scream.

"We really have to stop..."
  ["But you don't want to."]
((Yes.  She does.
  [[her heart rate and minor convulsions
    can testify to that]]))



"But [sir] you crossed the line when you got on top."

Author notes

    Wow, unique use of punctuation and phrasing. That experiance must have been so terrible. You really made the reader feel the pain. Great write.
