ive already bent,
already compromised for you.
all that i knew,
all that i loved,
was transformed for you.
i was ready,
i was prepared,
for that simple act of trust,
the sliding of your hand,
down the curves of my waist,
to the inside of my skin.
for all the time you've spent,
looking after me,
you should get rewarded,
should get something in return.
right when i was ready,
right when i was done agonizing over the pain,
you shot me down,
you put me back where i "belong."
if you could only see,
what i would do for you,
you would not question,
would not mock,
the ways i have plunged into.
the trench is deep,
my thoughts are damp,
but still i wait for you.
im trying,
isn't that enough for you?
