Love Poem: Deadly Embrace

Deadly Embrace

You see me crying,
You watch me sigh,
The tears stream down my face.

I see you watching,
You wish I’d die,
But I can’t leave this place.

What they say is true,
Love me,
Adore me,
Hate me,
Abhor me,
There’s nothing I can do.

You watch me dying,
You whisper lies,
Your hands tighten the shoe lace.

I know you’re smiling,
I’ve glassy eyes,
My body in your embrace.
