I used to love you
your style
just you
I loved the way you engaged the rules of grammar
I wanted to be the words that you wrote...
Hoped that when you wrote "you"
that "you" was me
I wanted to use my teeth...
graze your bottom lip
and softly pull u to me...
so I could inhale
each syllable... each fragment of thought
I wanted you to cradle me...
strum your fingers in different octaves
wind me up
and hear my different melodies.
When u wrestled with time...
watched it as it ticked through the night
I wanted to be that wave that you could ride
That would wash over and soothe your soul
I wanted to be your muse
I wanted to love me
be with you
wanted to capture your thoughts
reason through the complexities of your mind
but I think it was only meant to go so far
you have your demons...
and I...
cant fight them...
when I...
I was meant to want, not have
The physical was never meant to mingle
even when the opportunity was there...
And I find that I am at peace
It's nice to want...
was nice
even when it threatened the equilibrium
that was previously established by another
It may not have been as nice to have
So Stranger
from your words and to the first hello
and from the words you inspired me with
This is a whisper
that I hope reverberates within you...
through your imagined indifference....
to say
Thank you and
Goodbye
hopefully not forever but Id be okay with that.
Ive let go and
Im learning to appreciate seasons :-)
