Did You

Did you once think of me returning, all eager-eyed, reflecting; my skin tingling, hands restless; crooked smile, expecting? Did you once consider needing, late at night and calling; your voice trembling, breath bated, tears softly falling? Did you once imagine feeling, warm with arms inviting; lips engorging, eyes shining, flesh exposed, exciting? Did you once list to empathising, with earnest contemplation; soul-searching, life absolving, sheer consideration? Or did you simply stay dismissive, insulated and denying; hard-hearted, stamping, kicking love ‘till it was dying? Did you once think of my heart remaining ever true; or does that thought expect too much of someone such as you?
