Tears collect in her eyes
Forming a distorted reflection
Fluids aimed at my heart
Causing passions convection

Flickering static in her hair
Clings to her red quivering lips
Concealing lies between her teeth
She distracts me with her hips

Her flesh across my skin
A warm hand against my face
But those unfaithful fingers
Now seem so out of place

Her reassuring words
"You have no need to fear"
My response "Sorry sweetheart"
"The f* stops here"

Tied with anger, pain, and tears,
a product of all our worst fears.
