Showers of affection
Seem to soak you head to toe
Leaving you sopping
Across my brand new beige carpet
With a trail following right behind you
Making your deed visible

Scents of flowers and pretty things
Stain your buttoned white shirt
The air scatters it everywhere
Up the stairs, into our bedroom
Tainting everything it touches
With something deceitful

Your touch is now ice
Freezing me in your embrace
Your heart is black, your soul is empty
I no longer exist to you
Now the only thing that joins us
Is the ring I still wear*

"In life you must dance like no one is watching, sing like no one is listening and love like it's never going to hurt..."
