Desolate Sands Poem by BEAU GOLDEN

Embroidered pillow of brown lace and satin
coated with big fat drops that look like water
But its salt because the drops came from the eye
Ahh, the eye
Ahh, the I
Time for another sad goodbye

All i can say all i can say
You killed me today
In every way
the relationship died
Our paintings cried
We all felt you lied
I so often sighed


Fornicating with a stranger?
Think your heart is out of danger?
U R wearing a man's watch silver and large
Acting as if you are really in charge?

Seeing desolate sands stretch endlessly across the Las Vegas desert
I am reminded of how you treat me
How the plants all die under your thoughtless care
I never get watered i'm laid bare
What the hell do you see
when u look at me?
How many times our bodies entwined
How many times our tongues tangled together

gone perhaps forever
But all I can say
as you walked away
Is
You killed me today
And that embroidered pillow that i once worshipped because it held your head as u slept is something i just wish to throw away.
I feel that way every day.
