two months down.
doing fine.
coming around.
learning to believe
losing you
wasn't a loss for me.
and all of the holes you left
just made the light easier to see.
two months down
and i haven't heard a sound.
sometimes i pray
that it might be the day you come back.
always regret it
moments after i've said it
because i know it's best you're away.
maybe in a year or two
when the sting is a little less.
would be the perfect time
for you to show up, a mess.
i could look you in the eyes
and not think about the lies
i was too blind to see.
maybe once i'm not so bitter
that all of my heart
was shared with a quitter,
i could see you and not still have hope.
i could even lower my eyes
and touch your hand
to let you know i'm over it.
but nothing ever goes as planned.
She's A Woman Now!
.
Girls like playgrounds
posey rings around
ways to play dolls
relish the allure
of cutouts.
.
Women like offices
rosey bouquet gifts
yearn to play better
games relishing the call
of the wild.
