Lust leaves a trail of fire
Fingers run through skin
Flesh gone red with numb joy
Desire fuelled fucking
Racing chasing sliding
On top below grasping
Looking for one moment

That one moment of rightness
Doesn't matter the who
Just happened to be you
You who fitted the right body
The shape that matched
The orgasmic movement we shared
Then the love we fooled ourselves into

But fuck it some more
Not feeling knowing where it leads
The love that died the desire that remained
So onwards downward spiral
Not loving but still endless fucking
Tearing, ripping at each others fake promises
Till all that remained when the love was gone

Pain, hate, anger, rage
Dirty looks at twenty paces bang your dead
Family face down who's who hates whom more
Turf wars over party halls and clubs
Not speaking but roaring hatred with silence
Ignorance a weapon wielded well
It was great loving and hating you

But now never to return
This forward path away from you
Running on headlong to pastures new
But before I go for good one last thing
I've ruminated over both feelings for you
And find that all I can feel now is
God you were a great fuck
