*"Avant nous, D'autres amants ont dit : "Je t'aime." Comme nous... Avant nous, D'autres ont souffert, ont trahi même"* Edith Piaf --- You presented the evidence Cards filled the table Jack, King, Queen You even threw The Joker. I laughed at your attempts To pacify a self you so Resolutely dismissed until You realised I'd actually Gone. Profanities crossed Across the desk separating us And you owned your side Dispersing blood on Your hands. I sat still with a snigger A stare in my eye so wild You feared my retort A riposte shedding your Ego. My final offering Twisting the knife Plundered into my back Before this poker game Even began. I remained silent As you screeched My own voodoo doll With pleasure I watched your Pain.    © Sia Jane

Avant Nous
*"Avant nous, D'autres amants ont dit : "Je t'aime." Comme nous... Avant nous, D'autres ont souffert, ont trahi même"* Edith Piaf --- You presented the evidence Cards filled the table Jack, King, Queen You even threw The Joker. I laughed at your attempts To pacify a self you so Resolutely dismissed until You realised I'd actually Gone. Profanities crossed Across the desk separating us And you owned your side Dispersing blood on Your hands. I sat still with a snigger A stare in my eye so wild You feared my retort A riposte shedding your Ego. My final offering Twisting the knife Plundered into my back Before this poker game Even began. I remained silent As you screeched My own voodoo doll With pleasure I watched your Pain.    © Sia Jane
