Description She spread her words thick
rolling them up
in a rug of black treacleΒ Β 
to unfold somewhere
within his tangled soul
and leaving him
her sticky aftertaste
like bitter syrup,
fearing him to tread
where, once
they had lain -
two lovers in love,
threading life's desires together
on a beautiful tapestry
woven of pure silken dreams.

So why did he stay,
now, that she had broken him?

Some beautiful lines to illustrate a sad story. Lots of controlled emotions in a well written piece. A thoughtful looking back.
