‘Twas October long ago
but not so long ago
there you were
intriguing
beautiful
mysterious
going on of your days in the gutter
smoking cigarettes
smiling at me with your entire being
so it felt
so deep into my soul
no one could know what was about to begin
how our lives would soon be altered by one another
countless days were sworn to secrecy
bottles were consumed in secrecy
talk of running away
a drunken vegas wedding
sexual desire like non other
i would adorn you forevermore
our time spent together was fleeting
the most monumental moments my life will ever see
the most elegant, grimy, seductive, fiend i’d ever see
you drew me in
some months later this world stopped
plague
some years have passed
our lives have changed
you got me out of your system
he says
as if
buried feelings of love
of longing
of obsession
have slithered out from my dungeon of a heart
everlong
we’re amy and peter
we’re meant to be
we’ll never be
please
i’m begging
please
on my knees
always on her knees
come find me again
soon
