Stitch

I was torn, I was ripped Cut off and cut adrift With a slash and a slit I cracked until I split How you promised me a slice A bit of closure with a knife How you bolted, how you screwed Till both of us refused How I wrenched and groped Till this thing inside me broke How you stripped and flayed With the hope I'd melt away Peeled some skin, carved a niche Without a snag or hitch Till you peaked and dipped Deep into a pit How you twisted, how I moaned As you reeled and pitched Lashing flesh, striking bone Enthralled by every stitch Written by © Raven Drake
