I loved you, yes. Once You soothed me cool cool water on a burn You rocked me gently napping in your arms resting in a sunlit motel room. I grew to love your company The simple existence of a warm body in the same room To desire your lazily listening ear I learned to lust for shapes that did not my body fill To moan for groan for Forced tessellations roughly holding down my hips in demeaningly false passion. I loved you once But was quickly weighted left hand bending toward the dirt under the ceiling of your bed chamber “My love do not leave me you cannot leave me you will never leave me you will learn to love me hunchbacked lonely. My love my sweet my dear. My pet.                                       “ I drowned in the heat of your sweat Filling my lungs bursting with salt Filling my organs with your clammy salt Curing my love bitter shriveling dried my heart preserved for future consumption no longer pumping warm blood bleeding aching no longer throbbing stinging longing soaked in blood no longer beating .buhduhn.buhduhn.buhduhn. living bleeding my heart no longer pouring sweet blood from her mouth into thirsty veins. A cured lump of jerky fell from my breast onto the floor and I looked on indifferent as the dog took it in his mouth. I loved you once I sobbed childish little girl confused in your absence Upon your return arms vines twisting clinging to your steady torso Flowering my gently parting lips eager to pour forth my nectar into your life to sweeten your life I only wanted to be sweet for you. You unearthed me chopping roots clinging desperately to cool moist earth You unearthed me peeling tendrils from your walls wrapping me in a ball and tenderly bringing me inside through the side door You unearthed me dropping me in a too small *** Pruning pruning roughly trimming flowers falling to the floor I only wanted to be sweet for you now daily thirsting in your window nectar no longer flows now daily drying my leaves soft plush foliage bursting green browns falls crisp to the table I only wanted to be sweet for you now daily dying browning petals fall from my cheeks to the table and I wilt as the cat takes them in her mouth. You loved me once.
