Electrical Fence 

I no longer yearn for your graces for 

they now feel like shocks, reverberating 

through my body, enticing pain throughout 

I no longer yearn for a touch that sears 

 into my skin so unforgiving and 

 greedy, apathetic and incognizant 

I will let go of my claim on you, 

Unclenching my grip, my fingertips bid 

you goodbye at last, the agony ends
