I am alive tonight, wrapped in bloody sheets
a menstrual poison

Bathed in a wreckage of moonlight and limbs

She is full,

at least she was
the last time you looked
and he ignored you.

I am tired,
unable to sleep you away
Out and away

sing my sorrows to sleep.

I miss you,
like that...

The way you showed me the moon and all her friends
how you could have waved
and sure as hell
she would have waved back

Sure as hell
from the belly up

You were beauty, and still
I am nothing but sure

I would still wave

back and beyond skies.

Whoa...loved this, and your beautiful picture...

this rocked and then some, though heartwrenching....makes the reader climb inside that woman of all of us...

stark imagery, enjoyed this very much

New lovers are nervous and tender, but smash everything. For the heart is an organ of fire

each of your replies made me smile, so thankyou for them, so much. Sorry If i seem ignorant, I cant reply or read and reply often, internet connection here at uni is ridiculous amounts of money, and have to spend any money i have for internet for doing research. But today I'm treating myself!

Thankyou again, for reading and such warm replies.
