Her arms tighten their wrap, fingers clinging to bare flesh exposed,
And I welcome the tightening embrace like a friend claws for a secret disclosed.
I’ve fought for too long to keep her advances away,
A battle destined to be lost in the most undignified way.
And now here I find myself a disgraced statistic caught up in her lair,
A boiling *** of pressure, a shoulder of burden too heavy to bare.
Her breath so hot to my ear spreads righteousness throughout me,
Her legs so entangled in mine separate the confusion within me.
I have a smouldering hate for what she’s made me become,
I’m the lamb who went after the lion, too foolish to run.
To avert the disaster, of a normal life not spent,
The husband not to be, the children now absent.
She’s stolen that from me, a thief in the night,
And I let her in, to unleash her poison in the light.
But with a touch of a hand my hate now dissolves,
An impossible pairing, I feel there’s nothing we can’t resolve.
The warmth of her love transmitted through a word or a touch,
The pain from her look just all feels too much.
She’s a glittering diamond and my greed knows no bounds,
A wall blocking barrier to the prejudice sounds.
Unnatural and unsure, I hate what she’s made me,
But through the fog and the hatred hers I’ll be.
