Her hair of golden silk meets her skin of ivory Her lips of cherry red, stretches into a lazy smile As she drinks another sip of wine Swirling the delicious liquid inside her mouth She reflects on the day and laughs out loud Too bad he never saw it coming, he never had a clue She stares down at her perfectly manicured nails Never breaking a sweat, and she still accomplished so much She can hear the clock on the wall As the minutes and seconds continue to tick on by She walks over to her window that is partially open Staring down at the street below, from the 80th story The wind is blowing lightly, her dress slightly stirring She can barely make out the cars below, looks like a ghost town at this time of the night The moon is hanging high in the sky It glows so bright, appearing to grow bigger and then smaller Her cell phone rings, she looks down at the bright screen to see who it is It is him, of course it is...he wants to talk to her He leaves a frantic message to call him immediately Again she laughs, didn't he know she would get her revenge She sits back down on the bed, takes another sip of her wine Placing the call on her cell, she hears him answer hello almost screaming it "Hello Drake" she breathes into the phone "Angelica" where are you? He demands to know her whereabouts She laughs again, this time a tear or two escapes her eye He tells her she will never escape him She knows in her heart he is right Hanging up the phone, she closes her eyes, and drifts to sleep |

Well that's quite a story poem Amy. I enjoyed the read as it entertained me all the way through. Took a twist that I didn't see coming but that's really the theatre of this piece. Good work!! Eric the assured expectation of things hoped for, the evident demonstration of reality though not beheld |
