I'll withhold.Decline to sense.You will never feel inside of me.Elusive, Malicious, lucid.Deceitful myths of love...so weary.Bloodshed love slaves...not me.Guarded by his scars.I thought I might like that.Dominion of my heart.How sweet, How nice, how pretty.I am his goddess and he is my king.Virtuous ignorance was my mistake.Absurd.You have hardened me.Taken in.Feel my wrath.But I am shackled by you.Never free.So here is your glory.Enjoy the honor.You have fixed me.Let go? Oh no, I tried.So, I will stay.Revenge will pacify the ache.Nobody else will hurt me the way you do.Damn it! Why can't I just let go?Are your eyes still doves?Do your legs still stand like pillars of marble?You always come back to me.You too are tangled.But I will prevail. Callous.
