Compelling Satisfaction

The sky is a shade of dark grey now
 
It seems as if our depart has caused this terrible scene
 
Adjusting to the fact that you aren't right for me
 
I can recall the day you told me that we would never work out
 
My brow arose in an instant
 
My heart fell burning with shame
 
I had gave you everything
 
My brain knew this was for the best, but my body did not
 
It craved him with all my being
 
My body longed for his touch, but I new it would never be found
 
It made my soul crack in an anguishing anger
 
My hatred for you flared intensely as I cried day and night
 
 
 
My mind is racing, tracing, and erasing the thoughts we once had of each other
 
I walked into my mother
 
Not paying any attention 
 
I was too busy thinking of you
 
I decided to talk to my mother for some closure
 
Just to decide this was for the best
 
 
 
Driving up the coast, heading home

 
I notice your car out back
 
I walk up to the door and in a breath
 
You are on your knees
 
Begging please
 
I look into your eyes and for a moment I think you might have changed
 
But to catch a quick glimpse of compelling satisfaction in your eyes
 
I walk away, to awake out of this dream
