The frigid air
shakes her to the core
as snow falls around her
melting in her auburn curls..
his hands grip her tightly
leaving bruises
she cries out in pain and
runs frantically to the house.
a sharp pain fills her as
she slices through her wrist.....
her blood spots the floor,
staining like cherry juice,
her lips move
trying to scream.....
her lover fades as her mind goes blank,
all the rough kisses,
the bruises left on her delicate body....
she opens her eyes as the sun shines,
she sits with her great-grandfather,
smiling and laughing,
looking down at her lover....
