I step in and there she was in all her beauty in the flesh waiting to be devoured I noticed a wink and I was off to sink another just another not a person but someone or something to add to the notch in my belt. Seen as too easy, so I try, but my attempts are in vain and to think that they always walk to me. Finally, she strolls over and I can tell what she was thinking and how the plan of hers was going down. One drink here to be followed by a night of ecstasy. A night full of passion and fearlessness perhaps just stupid-ness, yet I take no orders from any but myself. That night when all is said and done we slumber and when the rise of the sun is seen, left to my lonely humility, I lay alone in my bed of adultery and everything gone lost to the night I just had I knew she looked too familiar to me then I remembered

I saw the devil encased in light, so bright and beautiful.
I only caught him for a glimpse. He was zipping the body-bag of his last victim.

That cold room of vacancy reminded me of my heart. Now is left, a hole, which is sucking up the precise light (I used to own). I thought I found my love again but really it was thrown away. My dear how I’ve changed from the innocent to the blamed. It can’t be all my fault though can it? With each passing night the sight of us together grew smaller and smaller until we seemed more as neighbors, occupying the same space. I was tolerating the weight on my finger yet as soon as I left I was seen as single. Leaving early staying late blaming it on hard work trying to feed my family. Now the only thing I feed is my wants or desires not thinking of any consequences or accepting my failure. I never said but it started after our first set of big fights. You remember I went out that night and on the drive to the closest bar I remembered

I saw the devil encased in light, so bright and beautiful.

How did you find out? I lived in secrecy jumping from shadow to shadow, like a cockroach. But alas my secret is out. It was said for death do us part, but I say death overtook us many moons ago. We would just drag the other corpse around to fake a perfect life we both desperately needed to feel alive. I’m sorry but it’s too late now and an apology would only fall on deaf ears. Eardrums now bleeding from the sharp lies they were told, piecing down to the heart. Hard to face the facts when the welcome mat is covering all the dirt for I am a different man when I enter my abode. My home is riddled with shameful empty conversations and quiet dinners alone. I know now I was always wrong and I’m sorry yet you’re too far gone to hear me scream. I feel a darkness coming over me. Shutting out the light and with the last set of metal latched I realize
