And So I Remain |

You drape your naked arm carelessly across my body, I can see goose bumps rise in the cool morning air, Your toe Peeks, Out from the end of the bed, The polished red nail appears as blood upon the sheets, Ruining Perfecting, Our all-white canvas, You stir, And your arm rests on my neck, A strangle hold if you were to move an inch, And squeeze, I close my eyes, Breathe, And try to imagine a better place to die, But I can’t, So I remain here, Breathing in your quiet scent, Watching your breast move in the slow pace of slumber, I trust you, And so I sleep. |
