Sickening Tenderness
April 1, 2011
Hands everywhere
Touching, grabbing, pulling
Greedy for sensation
A sickening tenderness
Heavy breathing
On my face; poison
I can't breathe in
A sickening tenderness
Intruding orders
The smell of sour grapes
Tasting salted tears on raw lips
A sickening tenderness
Paralyzed
Legs hanging limp
Something fallen away from inside
A sickening tenderness
Forever pained
Images carved into my soul
My corruption eternal
From his sickening tenderness
