My legs held the murals you painted on my skin,
Themes of purple, vermillion and hatred in lines thin.
Thinner than the skeleton of a person that remains,
Thinner than your remorse for the sick games.
An abstract piece of work in dark hues,
Some would call it domestic abuse.
I could make art too,
Not in the way you do.
But with rough strokes and vermillion running near ropes,
And tears cascading down porcelain skin, I had high hopes.
