She’d forgot
lies as sweet as truths
elicid off his tongue
burnt away with reason.
screams against the pleasure
from
a love that never was.
lips that spoke unholy truths
who
lost all certainty to sin.
the bitter taste of comfort

&

acid taste of retribution.
Now
between the bed sheets
she seeks him with no avail.
only another cloth less body
with no name
except closure.
