Love was not the plan
Spillage from the cracks
of dry rotted support
leaked acid
burning into my heart
She fancied pain
Tattoos covering tattoos
of severed ties
Her temple buried secrets
and I
the tomb raider
caught in the trap

I love how you started it with
~Love was not the plan~
and ended with
~caught in the trap~
That was genius.

The images here are so well drawn; and I like how the take on the prompt progresses- like a meeting of real people, real lives.
Cool
