a backstreet. a tight pair of nets

wrapped delicately around her legs

blisters like cigarette burns,

they glow in the streetlight

hand it over. my mistress. shes everything

heavy mascara, blinking aches

nobody knows shes crying underneath that face

we’re not pretty anymore

shes only a ***** street whore

a nobody.

Cheap thrill? Almost.

Sex sells, and somebodys gotta pay the bills

Im not so sure. Does she get her lines for free

Now shes just staring at me

And i cant turn away

In between her legs theres a dull ache

She hides her pain.
Just a whore. Nothing more.

And nobody expects her to ever be. [comments] => 8 [counter] => 341 [topic] => 13 [informant] => amber_vonhorror [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

So raw, I absolutely love it.

So many life stories that are seldom told.
