Maudlin

A Life Once Lost

her cloths were soaked with mildew

ropes burned their way

through her fragile thin wrists

i stood over her

watching to see

if she was going to live or die

i remember her

screaming and scratching to my arms

while i was tying her wrists

behind her back

she was kicking her legs

up and down in my direction

trying to prevent me from knotting the ropes

stop crying

i screamed in her face

you took me for granted this time

how could youve done this to me

i said as i punched the ground beside her

until fists were sore and bloody

honey this couldve all been different

if you had wanted it to be

i gently whispered in her ear

u dont care what you want anymore

this is what i want now

dont offer me anything

you will be wasting you breath
