The Secret Chord-Erotica Gods and Lovers
Dear Monsieur Morose
I waited for you
As you weaved your melodies
Of tragedy
Around my ponytails
I closed my eyes in anticipation of the things I would see
“Are you ready for the lullaby baby?”
Hark I hear the angels sing!
Teeth clenched
Heart raced
More
More
I would say…
Coddled in his arms
While scenes of decapitation
Violence
And so much
Blood…
It was never enough
More
More in a childish tone
Awakening him to the scent of flowers
When he drifted…
I wanted him to give me every
Secret
He played on
Tirelessly
To appease what he created…
But as I grew I knew I had to hide
You
Keep your beautiful melody
Far away from the light
And still
And every night
I watch the
The sun bleed in your honour
My heart still races
Teeth clenched
Monsieur Morose
My true love…
