Ozymandias * … 1403-2k13

The lure is so often great but crumples the laden heart with so much added weight Alas! regret is often futile when facts wag their tongues wasted love caught puerile low-life lying rat was cheating caught in a shady jagged glance that left lilly broken, seething emails, that weren't supposed read hung on words in heart wedged stabs to a bleeding heart led Vaguely! Lilly was aware she bled Things he never shared with her... a knell, sonorous rang in her head Lilly battled for a labored breath Glassy eyed she staggered, thought Wasn't it like just another death T'was a painful punch in her gut cold in time she wandered thought Treated so, She felt, like a mere slut What she had just learnt absurdly swift and so obvious. A smoldering hole in her heart burnt Like nine years of her marriage had been a ludicrous joke. the nauseous years of carriage Raced In Lilly's mind, pictures a ghastly movie reel in motion about those glances, strictures shrewd looks, puzzling remarks between supporting characters mystery's solved of lonely walks everything suddenly makes sense as the happenings slowly untangle. Lily thinks was she really so dense in a desert, clay king crumbles rats frisk around Ozymandias mute, a stone statue tumbles at speed of light stone erodes lives fall apart to blown dust Lily sighs, what hush forebodes? Lily's self respect is stripped 'That's it, isn't it? " she thinks "My wings at once are clipped" Lily Wonders, what am I to do? "hurry mummy I am done" calls little Ling from her loo!
