Sloppy Seconds

Whispering sensations
Full throttle ahead
Reserved hesitation
Lovers in their separate beds
Curious fingers
Legs in an open spread
Your perfume lingers
Obsessive reminders
Of a lost time far behind us
When your lips were cherry red
Pondering our options
I’ve bowed gracefully out
Muted to closed captions
I’ve opted for the peaceful route
The early worm
Always gets devoured
The late bird starves
And dies a coward
While stumbling about
A parallel thought
Transcends this demise
You’ve been caught
In a web of your own dirty lies
The spider soon returns
To the web he once wove
Demolishing all you strove-
To build, this bed of gold
Your passion dissipates
All has gone wrong
All you anticipate
All is regulated
Time is segregated
From the depths
To the elevated
Summon a spell
From your book of devilish magic
Perhaps this lonely hell
Won’t stay so selfishly tragic

I know it's been a while...
and you probably don't remember me-
...but that last stanza...
..phew...!
...was awesome-
..(and I think I love the rest as well!)
Yours-
