Stop

Arrest this love!
I demand the immediate
Cessation of feeling
Wanting, needing
Lock it up
Throw the key
Into the deepest drain
I'm disinclined
To resurrect emotion
If all I am gaining
Is suffering
And pain
Handcuff lust
To the bed frame
And leave it to decompose
Amongst red satin pillows
Let sincerity hang by the neck
Until dead
From the black silk scarf
That you left on my bedroom floor
I am pressing charges
And redial.
