No longer exposed.

No longer exposed.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

Trapped between the lines of A4
how I lived through your pen.
Now, you pause at thy name
my initials thicken,
the blotch on my name widens,
a shadow of despair insures.
It was all indicative
on how you wrote
my character off.
In a flash I was...
no match in the slow burn,
I began to char at the edges,
my well being parched,
until the blackened ashes
of me only remained.
I was no more but
an epitaph in a concrete bunker.
No more signs of dog ear tones by you 
where I entertained the story.
No longer your best seller,
written off -
you were no longer the heroine,
but the executioner
and yet,
still...
I see your signature stroll
into the lights
from your shadow cast.
