Persistent Heart Poem by Julian Escamilla

It's been a while since you left
And even longer
since I forcefully kissed your lips
Your savory taste
Had me wanting more.
An open invitation had been given to you
by my soul
But an R.S.V.P of rejection
is all that was confirmed
My persistent heart
Failed to accept the truth
of your reasons of abandonment.
This persistent heart will go on,
even if your devotion
is with another.
The truth is,
that my heart will not go on
with what you perceived as truth.
Truth is what will eventually place your heart back
to its rightful owner.
