The Lost Charge
She swept over me like the Ocean. Washing away the plastic memories. Holding the cheat-codes to my heart, I confessed it all. Rolling around and clawing sheets, A wild animal trapped in pleasure. There were no buts until after, When I'd lost it all with a lion's roar, Until the tide had turned, And I was left shivering on the beach. A hopeless gambler stumbling home, Broken by the house, Empty again, As timid as a mouse.
