400 odd days some might accept it, but with you I am dead. filled with water to my sunken eyebrows. the tigers now walk with me. the ones that walked back and forth as shadows. that was not love. no beast, nor growl has found love. I am without sight of your wiry lips. the ones that quivered like most ponds do, having life beneath them. yours did not. the tigers sit, ending tail on my legs over blankets. i wish to talk with them but like me they have fallen. hell within four hundred, your legs that bruise so easily your guilt your selfish appetite for love. take all of my water and leave this place. the tigers pervert me now.

For her.
