my love-parched lips ****** in the poison water from your well of lies quenching the wails of my thirsty soul
you enraptured me
cleaved me with your claws
left me specter-like
destroyed, deadened, desolate
a rotting skeleton tree crumbling in the raging rain
straining against my bitter crime of still loving you
scattered at my feet are the grimy scraps of withered leaves
lingering, last remnants of you
in FURY,
i fiercely try to kick you away
the gusty gale gyres you within its blustery breath
killing the echoes of my "I love yous"
offering up to me one silenced second
while in the distance an agitated river loudly roars
"you love him still"
and the heartened moon vanishes from the sky
leaves behind but darkness
but me
a tenuousness, teary night
