Have a taste
My empty cup
The fallen drop
You lapped it up
You left me dry
Vampiric suck
You had your fill
You had your fun
You left me there
Upon the ground
Broken
Bleeding
Lost
Unfound
I dragged myself
Up to my feet
My shaking legs
Could not bare my weight
I waited it out
Til the pain subsided
Just a bit
Enough to try
I walked myself
Back home to hide
Each day living
In that night
It will come again
It has come before
Unwanted attention
My allure amore
You said I want it
You pillage and take
You said I want it
I call it
Shhh
Fingers pressed
Against my lips
Don't break the silence
You asked for it
I do not dare
Disrupt the herd
I dare not say
Another word
No voice to speak
My tongue ripped out
My wings are broken
I'm jumping out
Landing
At your feet
Shhh
Can you hear me now
