*There was no way out of this She manoeuvred her body between a stone and a hard place Picked up her hurting bones And sighed Relief ... Anticipation and fear running through her veins How it came to this she couldn't even explain shivering as a cold chill ran down her spine Like the stumpy finger of jack frost etching out a delicate and elaborate design   Not a night to be out hunting or waiting around But needs must The sweet smell of redemption hung tantalizingly on a moment Time was for surrendering all Never looking behind Stepping on stones There was no way back from now She turns quickly A need to hold her breath has her in a suffocating embrace A shadow creeping the walls Beckoning Lost souls will sell their souls on nights as cold as snow cover mountains She breathes in Closes her eyes and surrenders to the moment She will awaken only when it is time No cracks of light lye here Not even from the broken street lamp A shiver and a fall from grace* ****

Be it what you would create with your mind, be she a  ****** waiting for another loveless punter or a stalking blood thirsty vamp  in search of their fill, or maybe the cells  inside her are screaming for a sweet surrender from another corner drug seller .... maybe she is you or I or maybe she is a part of us all
