he says by Emily G Myershe says
he says
he says
& pushes me
against the bed
& I wonder
what becomes
of girls
who succumb
& I wonder
where my past is
where my heart is
where my hand is
how easy it is
to give in
to forget
to ignore
& what he'll do
if I say no
or maybe
or I don't know
or if one touch
can reduce me to tears
he'll know exactly
how easy it is
to give in
to forget
to ignore
& I don't know but
he says
he says
he says
he never stops talking 02/26/2005 Author's Note: I hate to test limits. they never hold up.

Posted by Elizabeth Seago on 12/26/06 at 08:20 PM Intense indeed. I loved the speed of this. Emotions in a hyperspeed whirlwind. Yet logical. I could completely relate. I've added this to my favorites, and intend to browse around the rest of your library. =] |
