Eradicate
/I need to eradicate you from my life.......
I didn’t want to like you so much
But your hands on each side of my face and your lips kissing me on both corners of my mouth and you saying softly “Look at me. Slow down”
I melted inside
You winked at me
Your dimple showing on the right side of your face
Your laugh. I loved making you laugh
It seemed like you needed it
Like it was lacking in your life
But......
You weren’t mine
You could never be mine
How did I ever think that I was strong enough
A fleeting moment of hope that I could be the center of your attention
That. You. Want. ME
But the ME more than just sexual
I wanted you to love me
All of me
That you CHOOSE me
That I am yours
And you are mine
The occupancy sign tilted on my heart
The blood flowing
Cascading
Like a fountain full of coins with wishes on every one
I only wanted one coin
One wish.......
You
