The morning began to creep into the darkess through the tatterted sheets and old curtains.
I lie on a cold bed without you! my flesh touching the cold sheets the coldness i would not have been if your body was next to mine!
what remains of you is your crumpled shirt on the chairand your smell after shave, sweat and semen.
When i had melted into you that night it had been a few minutes of heaven and now all that is left is the rawnesss of my soul,  without your love.
Used. I wrap the sheets around my body hoping that the footsteps that pass outside of that cheap and sleezy motel room are yours, returning back to me.
      
                    He said he loved me the ****!

Medusa,
       I'm interested in knowing the thoughts behind this poem. . . it portrays longing as well as utter contempt for the one being spoken of. . .

That's not to say that I didn't like it. . . I thought that your words were well chosen and show your subject well. . . I'd just like to know more about it. . .

How sad for you or the lady portrayed in this poem.  I have never had a one nighter, cos I feared too much the morning after...
Well done though, strong and good imagery

sven!!! you have basically understood the concept!!! i tend to write raw pieces! right from the soul if i can the protagonist whoever she is! is absolutely ambiguous!! emotions are coursing through her mind! she has lost her virginity and he has abandoned her. i see her almost as the tainted angel and isis thanks for your reply!

Medusa-Good, and definately raw. Unfortuanately, sometimes we fall blindly. You have captured the emotion well.
