Mystery Woman
I want to know HER story,
not the fabrication presented to the
public
embedded within the creases of her
make-up---rather, underneath---that depth---
I want to know HER story,
how he broke you down and made you
human.
That "love" word was prominent early in your vocabulary...now, look at the "you"
he has created. Tell me your story
the words
the similes that lost their grandeur
in description
let those words become
my
monsters, and I can write it.
write a natural end to "that" story.
