Translucent

[Work In Progress, a quick rambling]

I had never been one for love. 
Not the candle lit dinners, 
or blood red roses.
But you insisted on taunting me, 
And i grew to detest you. 

Never the less, 
you demanded on taking my hand, 
and walking me into the open. 
Where I was left waiting, 
exposed and bitter,
 
from the winter storms.
Now you have so little time, 
For a shallow soul like mine, 
And I have too much time, 
For an hazy mind like yours.

At times it can be very hard to get a read on one's personality. Too many players. Great write, Ellie.
