The Scarlet Letter II
by Lyle Berry (Age: 61)
copyright 06-02-2001


Age Rating: 18 to 127

 
When you read this, I shall be dead.
No more dreams of your flagrant flesh
Shall frolic here, inside my head.
My purpose clear and Fate’s gears meshed;
When you read this, I shall be dead.

When you awake, I shall be cold;
No more to crave your crazy laugh,
Your fevered touch, your kisses bold.
This poison friend, I’ll gladly quaff;
When you awake, I shall be cold.

When you’re asleep, I’ll be in Hell,
No more to bleed from nine tails’ sting,
In stocks and shame beneath the bell,
No bastard born, no wedding ring;
When you’re asleep, I’ll be in Hell.

When you expire, you’ll join me there;
No more seductions – virgins fair;
Undoing virtue - ribboned hair.
You’ll know our pain too late to care;
When you expire, you’ll join me there.

No, on second thought, not "ex". Now you have me thinking hard about the rest...

This really hits hard. What came across to me was the bitterness; the feeling that the narrator is willing to poison herself, to die and spend eternity in perdition, just to be able to anticipate and enjoy watching her (ex?)lover's arrival in hell.
