[Library] Sonofamartyr
by Nikki RiceI had an inkling that this was only the beginning,
but I never dreamed that it wouldnt end.
All this time, Ive been waiting,
twiddling thumbs with breath bating;
a watch in a pocket, hanging on a chain,
Im winding and ticking and timing away.
I thought once Id broken, youd cast me aside,
but, no, son-of-a-martyr, youve made me your bride.
