..feasted on love
..tasted of your bounty
..lapped of your sickly sweet flesh
..frozen time in a whisper
..captured a raw breath once fleeting
..stood on an empty corner
..poured a glass a merlot
..indulged in gluttony
..danced in a stinging rain
..felt the pure beauty within me
..cried a tidal wave of tears
..slit a makeshift throat
..waited for the right time
..coiled in a blanket of warmth
..known a drug called remorse
..flown a freedom's flag at half mast
..broken a vow made of silence
..spoken a promised secret
..delved into the bluest of eyes
..consumed a virgin in lust
..been weighed, measured, and left wanting
..brushed a rose petal against my cheek
..laid a bevy of eye candy
..waited on the wings of tommorrow
..sung with a voice laced in silk
..left without notice
..craved the light of the moon
..spun a web of deceit
..held a newborn babe, to my breast
..fumbled in extasy
..strangled the toast of damnation
..gazed out a window of sorrow
..left breathless, spinning to a jig of elation
..abandoned all of tommorrow
..lost to the waves of sickness
..pleasured one deemed a whore
..mourned the passing of lost love
..climbed upon a ladder of thorns
..broken a gentle soul
..given in to the unknown
..blessed a canvas of emptiness
..stood up for what I believe in
But, the one thing I've never done....
