TOGETHER ALONE.

TOGETHER ALONE.
sne>k

Picnic at the cemetery.
We laughed, we joked, we died.
We reminisced for hours.
How fluently we lied.
How easily offended -
the spirits would become,
when carnal destinations -
would render us undone.
Temptation in a graveyard.
We fondled light relief.
We made the most of living.
Our time forever brief.
Our briefs we left discarded.
Religious in our lust.
Arrested procreation.
The only god we trust.
Crucifixion ecstasy,
fertility and death.
Fluids for the fallen.
Summer took a breath.
And I took your virginity.
A push, a shove, a sigh.
Ironic that your innocence -
should choose this place to die.
Peaceful in our mourning.
We slept on solid stone.
The living and decaying.
Together, all alone.
