Master

A memory of you torments me
your teeth no longer mark my lip.
my body naked, no marks
no sign of your love
no sign of my surrender
I have an empty burning inside
I would crawl over hot coals for you
but instead I stand alone for you
I will distract myself from you
I will be strong for you alone

A man in a bar wants to fuck me
I let his hands mark me,
stain me but only to distract me.
he has my body but not my mind
my mind's still with you
I remember a man in a cafe once
he was charming and mesmerising
he kissed me once drew blood from my lip
I cried, I fell in love
some things can never change.

I will always belong to you
