Love on remand.

LOVE REMAND.
sneak

A sixty watt electric moon.
Injecting death in a living-room.
At the rainbows end, a pile of shit.
She swears she will get use to it.
A foiled attempt at feeling good.
Poisons surge through caustic blood.
Time means nothing, so does she.
His every word a casualty -
of chemically corroded highs.
So casually he cuts all ties.
A vacant stare and ugly word -
that she'll pretend not to have heard.
For love is strange and uncontrolled.
Her love for him leaves me so cold.
My slight reward, her trembling hand.
My fantasy still on remand.
Her love for me still in my head.
I'll leave this day and all it's dread.
Closing eyes to compensate -
the harsh realities of hate.
Existing in each-others arms.
Amputated from his charms.
My hopelessness she knows so well.
Consumed by his narcotic spell.
A word from him and she would jump.
A fall, a bruise, a kick or thump.
Domestic violence born of this.
I fall for you... I always miss.
