Unlaced

Laced, unlaced.
A good girl gone bad.

The names keep coming,
But she doesn’t care.
Unmarried whore.
Slut.

All different names,
All the same meaning.

But she doesn’t care,
Because she’s in love.
In love with a man
Who betrayed her.

Betrayed her trust,
Her love, and her heart.

But he doesn’t know,
Doesn’t know she found out.
She made love to him
One last time.

She calls him a name,
Calls him a cheater.

She climbs on top of him
Straddling him, then slices his throat.
The blood pours out luscious and red
Like a beautiful red rose.

She’s sitting on his corpse
Once laced and now unlaced.

Chelsea Wolfe

I have my masters in English & Creative Writing! I'm a mom of two girls and a Husky pup. I'm usually a late-night writer, but I have had to adapt due to kids, work, and having a social life. Now I write every chance I get. I'm constantly looking for other writers to connect with because only writers understand the struggles of writing. I typically write New Adult and I've been dipping my hand in multiple subgenres to fit my interests at the time. This leaves me with multiple projects going at once. If I'm not writing, I can usually be found cuddling in my favorite corner of my mini library reading a book (usually my kids are reading their books with me) or out in the city for a girl's night.
