Before me you sat framed infused hypnotic eyes with your liquor of sorrows parched at your left.
Tracing your fingers as they clenched each card continuously - as if your mind was programmed by your own demon. As each one failed, you were stripped of your dignity your worth. You would then seep further into that chair.
Still I would watch, incase you drowned. Then again the cards would pile upon the dusted table and you threw them so feebly, so hastily. And I held your time in my hands remorsefully as it poured out my own creases like sand.
You told me you were hurting, the sight of this ripping paper, shredded by your eyes only reminded me of how you once tried me. I didn’t lose it for you, nor did you win with me.
