Perched bare chest and aloof
Last days of abandon thought
Sipping at my lip
The ribbon in my hair
Fallen, pink
Limp with usage
Tickles, just barely
The long narrow of my neck
That girl whose favorite book
I stole, has beckoned
The pictures of stories told
Treasures of people she once knew
Carefree, unbound traveling
Upon a whim, a laugh
Not a cackle
Bathes me, taking my innocence
Wrapping it tightly
And dispersing it into
The echo
Of this room
Shuddering, quirky and unnerved
I call you again
The shrill, mocking my needs
Tells me five times you are gone
So I leave you
Without saying goodbye

An interesting poem that starts out happy and ends kind of curiously. Starts of innocent and ends maybe not so. Very interesting poem.
