the night is dark and deadly,
i come and lie with the smell of tobacco
on my mouth and body..
Closer she comes,
eyes half dead
half open for an embrace..
I spread my fingers on her forehead..
and then she smells the soot..
admonishes, and turns around..
That is how
i killed my love..
unbloodied..
stealthily..
dark and buried ..
on a black night..
writing useless poetry about it..
next morning..
