Storing the moment

Picture
As the light dies
Casts shadows across the bed
You draw me
In light lines
Blacks and pastels
Stark collarbones
And giant eyes
Storing the moment on paper
Because you think I'll be gone soon
You want a memory of the girl who challenged you
Strove to make you better
Asked why
Put you under a microscope
Forced you to stop gazing at me
And examine yourself down to the grit
Does it make you uncomfortable?
My disarmament of you?
Your shining armor
Revealed to be the emperor's new clothes
