Broken Trust
Her chest cavity empty
Drained carelessly, caves
His brows smooth in relief
Hands wandering her body
Her insecurity replaced
by fraudulent worship
His muddy irises obscured
tears refusing to spill
This masked artifice
Unknowingly worn
Beguiles the youth
Her body atop, temporarily filled
bends with his breaths
cheeks tarnished by water
His lips brush her skin
She imagines her face
Empty again
