Sad Girl

Sad Girl

A Poem by Myra

Outside the window I watch the world on loop. Having
memorized the dropping cues. Russet,
and almost dead. Unceremoniously they fall into gravity's
inevitability. We are only supposed

To forget names. I've learned to drink in your
eyes wide shut. Whimpering like a hurt dog"dur"while
you plead, and begged and...
But now I can look at his face as you gave him the

Mouth, and I repossess you between my legs. Sedation makes
 a real good anticlimax though. And 'cause time will only assume
Entropy. I have grown so far away
from you. I've assumed another natural state.

Neck and wrists are already numb on their braces.
I no longer dream. Nor do I get past the last morn sun breathed
on my cheek. But in here you don't have to be scared.
I have camouflaged our body in padded concrete.

I'd appreciate the feedback. It would really help me a lot. I just want to know if somehow I successfully captured something that runs beneath the surface in words and images.
