Take a Breath

Take a breath.

I found her at a bar,

the attraction was instantaneous,

I seduced her into coming home with me.

Take a breath.

My heart races,

my palms sweat,

the anticipation is palpable.

Take a breath.

Her eyes widen,

she starts to perspire,

her body tightens.

Take a breath.

I reach for my favorite tool,

my grip tightens,

I prepare for insertion.

Take a breath.

She wails like a banshee,

her body goes limp,

I remove the blade.

Take a breath.

I clean my tool,

I destroy the evidence,

I take a drag off my cigarette.

I exhale.
