PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I’m broken up about my thoughts never being spoken

I hold onto to those words, my eyes have barely opened

My thoughts are consumed of memorizes we use to

share

But now I must strip them off, I’m bare

In the shower I let the scalding water, drop by drop run down my skin 

Afraid that I made a mistake by letting you back in 

I have bruises, tenderness surrounding my heart

I’m having cold feet, I should have known from the start

That you would create this electric shock passing

through my veins

I feel as if we will never really be the same 

I scrub off the smell of your cologne from my pours

Just the feeling of your plump lips leaves me sore

I try to wash off the feeling of your finger tips from my scalp with shampoo

But this routine will inevitably bring me back to you

Because I love your touch, your lips, your smell

But that’s a secret I’ll keep from you, will never tell

I’ll count the days until I’m back under your blue satin sheets 

But for now I’m left with the mental pictures I keep
