You look at me with such contempt
A room filled with the smell of
Water lilies and sex
I am done with you
I do not ask you to stay
I watch you leave
Slamming the door
The noise echoes in my ears
I lost my purity years ago
That does not ease the ache
Between my legs
Or the throb in my chest
The moon will bloom tonight
And I will plant it in my bed
I will lie with it
And suck on its glow
Like a newborn
Filling my body with youth
And purity all again
A fresh virgin
I am reborn
Only to fall victim to sin
To defecate and purge
All beauty in my brain
I cannot ask the moon
To come lie with me again
I cannot breathe in night
To give me lungs.
