She Had To

by Megan - Aries

She stands
Under the awning
Of his good intentions
But instead of
Finding comfort in
The shelter he provides
She puts one foot 
out and the another
Stepping into the rain
He tries to lure her
back with promises of
happiness, warm
fires, soft words
and soft bodies, but
she finds that the
longer she remains
the colder and more alone
She becomes.

Reason for writing:

    For a friend...
