face pressed against face
bound from neck to knee
constricting breath
you both struggle against suffocation
if you inhale together
her ribs will crack
if you are methodical
careful
synchronized
you can undo the straps
working from top to bottom
you feel incapable
doomed
she so helpless
it's her life you try to save
yours is nothing
she pays for your every mistake
the first straps are easy
but near the end you stop attempting to unbuckle them
try to tear them off
all the while your breaths shallower
quickening
at the waist
your fingers still struggling with straps
she lays her hands on yours
whispers in your ear
you've undone enough
