One Woman Waterfall

On guard Weapons drawn Razor edged dialogue Cutting deep into the last breath of affection Words spewing like acid, staining our masterpiece. Colors melting into gray bubbling with the sounds of disaster "Fu*k You's" crescendo into the odor of hate Your Teflon tongue spills explanations with non stick sincerity A reservoir of "I'm sorrys" burst into a flood of tears You become a one woman waterfall Your love was financed Compounding interest Loan shark terms With a heart that carried a second mortgage I'm the victim of foreclosure Left empty, blindsided ,cold cocked From your drive by lie Our love now crippled and maimed Searching for a handicapped parking place
