they met back in college, the place of liveliness.
she cherished him before he ever would.
she held out her hand for him to grasp it.
he grasped her hand and kissed it
she drags him to the parties.
he drinks in the corner.
she was desperate for love.
he did not want anymore from life.
she loved him.
he loved the body she lends to him.
she asked the question before he could.
he said “yes.”
she was thrilled.
he despised it.
she bought the house.
he got the job.
she was in-love.
he loathed life.
she danced in the kitchen.
he went to work.
she texted a friend.
he parked the car.
she strummed the guitar.
he reached for the glovebox.
she vacuumed the floor.
he pulled the trigger.
she pulled the covers over the bed.
he died instantly.
she received the call.
he looks good in navy blue.
she looks good in black.
he lives in a coffin.
she lives in an empty shell.
he lives,
while she dies.
