27 Needles

My flesh is so rotten it barely holds me together
She died a virgin and I know I can never change her

My mind writhes in agony as it screams at her
She can not hear me and my mind lashes out in anger

My flesh is so cold it freezes at her friendly touch
She can never know what my heart has tried to clutch

She was naked and not ashamed
And the warmth of her body was too much
She was pale and purely beautiful
And my heart stopped at her gentle touch

My heart pounded away as she laid her head on my chest
She sighed softly with every rhythm of her dancing breast

My mind creates worlds that are impossible for me to digest
She was so graceful like a cat so pale in the light after she undressed

My heart cannot survive the fury of its own meaningless beating
She cannot understand my fervor with no words clear in the babbling

She was naked and not ashamed
And the warmth of her body was too much
She was pale and purely beautiful
And my heart stopped at her gentle touch
