Passion

Spent
This coin
Of my passion
This issue - Spent

Highly priced
This passion spent
In torn dress
Broken nails

Issue spilt
On split skin
Red mixed white
Frothy pink

First date - last date
Always like this
Resisting kisses
Subdued by knife

Pink skin fading
Warm issue cooling
In passions blood
She's lain past sleep

This is one I'm going to have to mull over. It can be taken so many ways!

I really enjoyed this...that dark twist that overlaps love, lust and violence...quickly and to the point!(Pun intended!) Thank you
