Her sweater clings to her taut flesh, concealing it. Protecting it.
Introduced to a new sleeve,  a short sleeve,
She cherishes the feel of the air on her exposed forearm.
Never before has she felt so alive, so.. Exhilarated.

It’s been so long since she last felt this. A sense of absolute contentment.
Finding this irresistible, a feeling as momentous as this,
She devotes her life toward this affection.
Never had she expected this to happen.. Betrayal beyond compare.

Her sweater clings to her taut flesh, concealing it. Protecting it.
Introduced to a new sleeve,  a short sleeve,
She cherishes the feel of the air on her exposed forearm.
Never before has she felt so alive, so.. Exhilarated.

It’s been so long since she last felt this. A sense of absolute contentment.
Finding this irresistible, a feeling as momentous as this,
She devotes her life toward this affection.
Never had she expected this to happen.. Betrayal beyond compare.

Her sweater clings to her taut flesh, concealing it. Protecting it.
Shielding that tender soul, the one you  shattered,
While she begins searching for herself once more.
Never one to forget, she’s already forgiven you once.

It‘s been so long since she last felt this. A sense of absolute helplessness.
Devouring every fiber of her being.
Her sweater clings to her severed flesh, revealing it. Sucking life from it.
Incapable of the wrath of disappointment, the one you created,
She lies on the bathroom floor,
Never to rise again.

To the side of her forsaken body remains a trace of her heart.
And as he leans over to kiss her forehead, he picks from her hand his razor.
There, perched beside her body he inscribes her initials into his veins.
As their blood mixes he mumbles into her ear his love for her.
He stares at her body drained from all color other than her blood-soaked sweater.
Unbuttoning each button, as he’d done so many times once before, he unveiled her.
Just as he began to feel his psyche slip away, he pulled her close,
slipping the short sleeve shirt he’d bought her onto her pale form.
Cradling her head to his chest, he then slipped away to be with her again.
To apologize once more.  Less
