Offered a gift I so dearly wanted
All I had to do was walk out the door
And never look back
But I choose to stay.
...
Hair cutting into my face
Like her beauty through my thoughts
Eyelashes tickling my neck
The way her laughter feels in my ears
...
I cleanse my heart in the healing waters
Of your stare
Letting the clear coolness wash
Over me
...
Unopened
Offered a gift I so dearly wanted
All I had to do was walk out the door
And never look back
But I choose to stay.
I loved you beyond words
Beyond emotions
And yet I let you just walk away.
I died, it was suicide
I had the power to subside all the pain,
To push back this new death, yet I let it come.
Looking it dead in the eyes
As I waved
Goodbye.
