The limbs crying for so much more Pain that it has never missed in its life Lines so jagged like that of a rigged cliff As her fingernails pursued their etchings And she watched with glee with every action No silence remorse, just a pure sensation of hope That I would continue diving deeper than my need Until she would be able to swim in all her lust for life Condescension of tears falling crookedly from her eyes Too much laughter that rested on her soft lips That quickly took me in for her satisfaction For the cuts that were never healed bleed more Touching inside me, she ripped through me Taking me apart slowly and putting together another me A mere doll of my former past and my former mind The betterment to her society and a shell conceived of pure love And yet the sacrifice was hers alone that night Giving up so much to please herself in her mind And molding again what she had craved in life To appease the struggle of eyes that followed her relentlessly With her re-creation done, her canvas inanimate Without the spark of a kiss to ignite his soul She turns to his missing heart of blackened gold And brings to life the love of her ill-fated past. © 2005

Her Creation, Her Sacrifice
The limbs crying for so much more Pain that it has never missed in its life Lines so jagged like that of a rigged cliff As her fingernails pursued their etchings And she watched with glee with every action No silence remorse, just a pure sensation of hope That I would continue diving deeper than my need Until she would be able to swim in all her lust for life Condescension of tears falling crookedly from her eyes Too much laughter that rested on her soft lips That quickly took me in for her satisfaction For the cuts that were never healed bleed more Touching inside me, she ripped through me Taking me apart slowly and putting together another me A mere doll of my former past and my former mind The betterment to her society and a shell conceived of pure love And yet the sacrifice was hers alone that night Giving up so much to please herself in her mind And molding again what she had craved in life To appease the struggle of eyes that followed her relentlessly With her re-creation done, her canvas inanimate Without the spark of a kiss to ignite his soul She turns to his missing heart of blackened gold And brings to life the love of her ill-fated past. © 2005
