THE REWARD

I LOVE YOU DIGITAL VERSION CHRYSSA VELISSARIOU 2014

I had the right

to hurt you as you did, right?

We're talking about passion, right? 

About sharp fingernails

nailed in your buttocks

About venom kisses biting your tongue

About shouts and screams

and tears and quarrel

About making you bleed as if I was

a rabid female wolf; as you did;

as you do, anyway...

Well, I didn't

I played my role properly

Just to please you 

I was biting my lips

my stomach writhed with pain

Ι was wandering in the streets 

crying and smoking

I did not sleep a single night twirling

seeing you in front of me and 

desperately craving your body

listening to another woman 

to call you her "love" 

while I was suffocating just to 

look at your eyes and to smile friendly 

Have you ever felt anything from all this ? 

How did you reward me? 

You believed dust came into my eyes 

when I shed tears

that I got sick when 

I could not breathe

You let me go with a farewell kiss 

on the cheek

I knew I would never see you again

But still I could never accept it...
