Making Love by Gaslight

Sure, it's no candle...

*tink*

*tink*

The dripping sink.

The faucet leaks

And still, we drink.

We dull our senses

So we can think,

And talk about the past.

We've scribed our lives

In blood and ink.

Removed our eyes

So we could wink.

We've rid ourselves

Of human-stink

In a chocolate scented bath

*tink*

*tink*

The kitchen sink.

I hear it drip.

It helps me think.

I see your lifeless body sink.

I knew you couldn't last.

Drink. Drink.

Elephants. Pink.

I popped your lock.

You chained my link.

We both quaffed nonsense and kited kink.

And here we are:

Unwrapped.

Reviews

I like this the structure is fun and the rhyme is great! This has a distinctive and organic flow to it!

Thx! It was fun to write. Not used to rhyming but I enjoy it.

[Ana Papaya]

this is mad good

i'm a huge fan of rhyme and things that are kind of off kilter, this is a little trippy in parts which i really like. the title is very interesting because of it's double meaning :) (if you know you're being gaslighted then it's really just role playing, right?)

a chocolate scented bath sounds very appealing also

Lolol you're entirely too much.
