Why use 10, when 1 could hurt just as beautifully.

i build her a house

she seeks no shelter

i make her dinner

she has no hunger

i pour the wine

she decides to not drink

i offer her love

and it is never enough

i ask what she needs

as she replies with a laugh

oh child

i have your soul

what more could i need

the idea of never having love again

is lost to the memories

of having loved

tall thin condo living

dark hair against turquoise sheets

a pure lust of profession

unlike a waitress

kingston

this broken love

dances towards me

in black and white boots

blushes when i whisper

sleeps when i wish

and wishes for lovely whispers

spoken from these lips

softness eludes her

evades her dancing feet

in a broken solemn bus stop

a mile west of kingston

distrust

distane

deteste

dislike

deter

the devil

doesn’t dilly dally

death

on the other hand

lingers

lonesome

longingly

wine glass

right now this is beauty

in a clear dress

a one legged

half empty whore

let us open some old wounds

we could pour some salt in

and see who hurts the most
