i.
she ties him down tight,
sparks trailing through her fingers--
as it always was.


ii.
then she hears his breath,
shallow, rapid, fading fast,
she is losing him.


iii.
she does not hold him,
such things are not for such as
them, she just watches.


iv.
she sees life draining,
face fading, eyes fading; he
is cut off, silent.


v.
she sits beside him,
she does not weep, she only
plans life without him.

...um, if I'm reading this right he died while they were having sex? Awkward. And nice note at the end, that she's planning rather than grieving. Very sociopathic.

Thank you.

I think he had a heart attack while she was untying him, actually, though I'm not 100% sure. So not quite while, but almost immediately after.
