White picket fence dream

by code3019

I know you are here to read
to reap me off
till I’d reek of lies

You are a predator in motion
so I watch my gait
open my eyes

and of course I loved you
wasn’t I praying
at your heart’s doorsteps?

or was that you
preying
grandmother’s footsteps

If only one will live
will leave the other
beneath a white picket fence
