Know Better

 

Like hands on flames
I touch, I pull back

I know better

 

This is what it is until it isn't
anymore

 

and I wonder

if you felt the heat

between us

 

and knew that it is different
than anything I

have felt in
an excruciating amount of time

 

or even care slightly

that you will burn me
like all the other flames before you

Tactile Write

About expectations and repetition, practical regret. - Well composed, this one. ~slc~
