let him speak

are you listening?
she was Eve….
large devouring eyes
a glamorous starlet
my
self-fulfilling obsession
every school boys fantasy
eye remember her
new 2 love
naïve and delicate frailty
trapped by environmental circumstance
batting eyelashes
coy and sweet
garlic toast @ midnight
the laughter shared
brought tension between us
the kiss
brief and
completely devastating…
how we shouldn’t
how you wanted 2 wait
lips whispering
“no”
body
opening 2 me the virgin door
and you said eye would be yours forever
do you hear me?
do you remember me
diving head first in2 the depth of you?
the rhythm
exposed before each other
the wetness that saturated us in ways
none
could deny
the
breakfasts in bed
friend
my lover
drowning in the affair of a lifetime
eye am your One
and now eye hear someone speak your name…
has forever come and gone?
my eyes closed
for days or years
eye should wake up
with the hollow of wishing you were real
instead of make believe
instead of a fantasy that shows herself only when eye am…
