He gives out I-love-you's like sweet candy
that leaves me sick
Fertalising a fetus of fear within my womb
Giving into temptation
for a taste of the sweetness
Just one more kiss...
leaving my lips sticky and stained

I missed that in the fine print of his warranty

(He had many owners)

He throws sincerity into the breeze
A kite that he doesn't care to hold onto
Spiralling out of control
Down
Down
Down

His rough hands smoothing over a hemline of truth
Cracking the china edges with his sharp words
Cutting like glass
Shattering the night into four parts
Each a higher reality of his own command

All but a game for the hunter

Stuffing his belly full with delicious women
Only to throw them back up again
To squirm
Trapped in supple sacks of illusion
Always falling in love with the possibility
of him ever being real
Infatuated by a memory
Sparking yet another dream

Living in a shadow of hope
that one day
he may fall.

he has fallen my friend, he has...don't wish him any bad...just move forward and learn the signs and listen to the most important voice in your heart...be glad for the experience, you've been made a wealthy woman...more aware, and hopefully less scarred and torn....feel pity for him, nothingless, nothingmore.  Love and hugs
