Enterrad mi cuerpo cerca del mar en Venezuela<br /> - Luis Silva


I am a hopeless romantic in an affair with prince charming 

We have never been very discrete we never needed to 

People love seeing us together 

But too much makes people worried 

Because they know it is improper for a lady to love so much 

To love so freely and indelicately 

 


Eventually I will have to face him 

Privately, of course there are things the world can’t know 

According to everyone, it was meant to be 

It’s a shame nobody came to the ceremony when we swore it’d be until death do us part 

That wasn’t something they wanted to watch 

True devotion, duty and sensibility 

 


Who was I kidding? 

I’ve been treating everyday like a cheat day 

Now my mirror is serving me divorce papers

I refuse to sign

I wanted to start a conversation about eating disorders with this piece. Hopefully, someone doesn't feel so alone.
