Dust

Loveless Tragedy

A girl sits lonely and sad

Her heart aches for the love she never had

 

The air is ripped from her lungs

Gone in a slither of tongues

 

She weeps for her innocence, long forgotten

Remembers as her flesh was torn like cotton

 

The hair rips from her skull

The ache is subtle and dull

 

Her screams are silent

While his touch is invasive and violent

 

He leaks like milk from a jug

Then leaves like a pride filled thug  

 

The marks on her waist turn blue

His “love” white and slick like glue

 

She cries to distract from the pain

Then shoots up straight through the vein  

 

Hey eyes are glassy and round

She dies without making a sound

 

One thought crosses her mind

Before it’s all left behind

 

Love is all she ever wanted

The one thing that leaves us all haunted

 

The air slips from her chest

At least she tried her best  

 

Her life eventually goes

Gone in a flurry of woes
