Freedom Fighter

She snuck 

under cover

into the Us-sized

space

telling tales

of dynamite

and gunshots.

 

Stimulating

your intellectual-loving

juices, and

tensing

your fitness-loving

muscles

with her

10k promises.

 

Freedom - she sold

whilst being occupied

by another.

 

She ignited your heart

despite her

cragged face - (experience).

 

Emboldened 

by late night discussion

and tactical play

she advances,

challenging

the spectre of me and

our love.

 

She's fighting the

good fight

and

setting me 

free.

telling tales of dynamite and gunshots - fabulous phrase I'll have running around my mind all day.
