Crime of Life

  Lust Lost Its Luster
We couldn't stop. It went on for days and days, like we weren't aware that time existed, and if it did, like we could hide from it in each other's arms. Like the sun wasn't going down, coming up, going down, over and over. Maybe it was just that simple - that time stopped for that perpetual weekend and we were frozen together, twisting and weaving, coming and leaving. And then, at the end of it all, the magic was revealed and it lost its luster. It was no longer desire.

We waited in patient embrace, but things never changed - not to how they were before. Now there was no intrigue, no mystery, no pulse of life within Us, but we kept beating and beating strictly for the sake of that one weekend, as though if we waited long enough, the desire would overwhelm us again. And it did, just not with each other.

This is a collection of my entire life's sentences as I have judged them.

Some are innocent, others are not, but each hides within it a subtle prisoner; a villain that could be freed if you pried the lines apart like cell bars and read between them, detailing remorse for a crime of life that can no longer be disguised.

(This is a second blog, because Blogger broke my first one)

Born on the prairies, lost by the ocean; standing on my feet and writing on my mind.
