Forever Breakup

Nonet

Watercolour by R Stewart

Your hands grapple 'round my pale slim throat

"If I can't have you, then no-one will!"

Tightening hands give breath pause

"Don't you look at him, slut!"

Stars flicker past eyes

"You are mine, whore!"

Fading, fast.....

"Mine! Mine!"

.....passed.

Authors note - Yes, I'm trying to be a bit more confident with my art. It isn't how I envisioned it, but it is what it is. Thanks for looking and reading, since you've got this far.
