I was whole, 
A whole person 
Before you came along.

You caressed my smooth skin, 
Admired my silky softness. 
Kissed and licked 
Then declared, I am yours to keep.

Everywhere you touched 
Left marks. 
Marks I knew would never disappear,
Yet I loved them all the same.

Each day that passed, 
You left more marks, 
Marks of love, you said. 
I embraced them, embraced your love.

The marks began to hurt
When you no longer caressed me, 
No longer admired me
Like you did before.

How long has passed?
Why has the love in your eyes died?
What changed? 
Have you found someone new?

The marks you have left, 
Opened and broke.
My skin has deteriorated.
You shattered what once,
was a beauty.

I was a whole person
Before you came along.
