NEW POETIC ORDER

You’re reluctant, 

You resist,

Your feet meet,

The ground beneath you,

As though it were water,

While their firm grip

Leads you

Leads you to your final resting place

You think back,

You see blood,

You see sweat,

You see tears,

She’s screaming at you,

She loves you,

“Please stop”.

You’re reluctant, 

You regret,

Your hands meet,

The lady before you,

As though she were your only saviour,

While her firm grip

Reminds you,

Reminds you of your first meeting place, 

You think back,

You see blood,

You see sweat,

You see tears,

She’s screaming at you,

She loves you,

“Please stop”.
