I can smell the cigarette you put out on my skin. The sting, it lingers, but I am used to the pain. I can feel your gaze, not love but lust from sin. Still I let you touch me, in hopes I feel sane. Your hands wander and I want to scream. Tears are running but I am not hurt, just in pain. You pay no mind and so it seems This bed will always creak where you have lain. I am haunted by the ghost of your touch Who once took my soul from me. Desecrated place, my eye are lifeless such Without hope or depth for eyes to see. I am finished here, it is over. I no longer belong to me but you have claimed me for your own and left my lifeless body in the wake.

Desecration
I can smell the cigarette you put out on my skin. The sting, it lingers, but I am used to the pain. I can feel your gaze, not love but lust from sin. Still I let you touch me, in hopes I feel sane. Your hands wander and I want to scream. Tears are running but I am not hurt, just in pain. You pay no mind and so it seems This bed will always creak where you have lain. I am haunted by the ghost of your touch Who once took my soul from me. Desecrated place, my eye are lifeless such Without hope or depth for eyes to see. I am finished here, it is over. I no longer belong to me but you have claimed me for your own and left my lifeless body in the wake.
