[bodytext] => Curtains drawn, this pity stage showcasing yet another spectacle of us. My vigorous hero, clenching me in your iron clad hands. A mindless knuckle, here you are again, forming a disasterous fist. I buckle under the impact, oh sweet reminscence. It is another blunt awakening, subject to the callouses of our love. Tender viking, you pound the hurt sorely into my flesh. A desperate machine gunner, gaurding your turret of ambition. Open your eyes, stale warrior, you're still shooting blanks! Loving you is slapping me, across the frail cheek bones that are pale and weathered from my stormy eyes. Constant clouds of abandon lurking behiond every blink Forcing pools of denial to flood the main gates and reluctantly travel into the openess. Vulnerable am I, a unarmed adversary, weak and committed. Questions to you, and life. Where would I be if I refused to stand after another brutal beating? Do not get the wrong impression, this body keeps no shameful secrets. It is not that you have ever marked me with your hand Nay It is the constant and repetitious impact of your disasterous fist clenched tight with truth, bounding reality into my devesated callouses. You are to abandon this battered girl to become an honest and endearing Marine I rise from the floor, marked as solace So many nights cherished on the cold stage of self-pity You, you've become something more than an ill-tempered Devil Dog You're something far greater. I will feel you fall, in the nights coming and without hesitation clutch my sides from the crippling pain Remember me in this light, as hopeful. And return without expectation For a well weathered woman will not neglect to rise before you And I just cannot promise to take anbother beating for the sake of your dreams and destiny.
