Loved Him Up

i mean... she loved him up something awful rare poignant flower stagnate above seaweed leveled bottom feeders he scooped her quick cupping her in his hands once able now crippled investing in her salve rubbing and stretching them loving him up something fierce he closed his eyes feeling hypnotized invaded by the tampering scent of her over come seized by her petals fixed steady from the stem nor wilting to bruises took full advantage of seeds protruding middle with ability to heal bringing to his knees the sturdiest man with it’s therapy he murmured of tedium once raiment sleeves turned sand stained yellow film grew dingy and grim luster wasn’t plain no more straightening his collar he stepped saying she got nothing more she got no potion left her spirit concealed exhilarated jubilation as wide as a canyon she wasn’t wronged after loving him up strong she still loved that man up strong
