to never feel this way

ever again

riding country miles

to see you be with you

excited & hot

priapic

staying up all night

to talk

hear you telling all

of bruises being broken

empowering the new

in you & me

saying together

these things

will never happen again

I fear I am too wary

jaded cynical now

of words spoken

that killed

the unspoken secrets

that destroyed us

such are

the consequences

of fear wrecked love
