Write You Out

I think it’s time I write
Write you OUT
Of the coming pages of my life
Oh…you linger
On every page
that's ever been
Keeping the plot a disguise
Unexpected events
My heart's demise
Slowly but surely
being written
By your unseen hand
I reread chapters
You were in my yesterday
You haunt my today
I don’t want you in my tomorrow
Not when you only bring me pain

No
I’m going to write you out
Cause I couldn’t write off
The debt of pain
I STILL OWE
To your oh so exacting heart...
I can't write it off
and so...
I’ll do the next best thing
I'll write you OUT

Out of the next scintillating sizzling sexy sentence
Out of the next dreamy dreamscape
Out of the next contentment compartment
Out of the next feminine fruition fantasy
For you've written only fragments
Sentence fragments of the greater picture me
Oh my!
Oh me!
I’m going to write you OUT
Of MY book 
Of rememberance
The book of ME
Oh, it could have been
The best seller of your LIFE
But now you'll never know
Cause the coming pages are clean
for some beautiful soul
Some expert author
With the plot of pleasure 
Bursting from his heart 
Onto me
I'll LET HIM
Scribble his lines
Those glorious curves and dots
all over my body and mind
all over me...
Yes....spill his passion inked words
ALL....OVER....ME!!
And him..
HIM
I'm going to write IN
Oh...so deep and gloriously...IN
The book of ME

I think we've all had someone in our life that we have wanted to write out, at some point. Good job. I can feel the intensity and heat of anger with this poem!

they say breaking up is hard to do. these words affected me because you write about the one you love and I have nothing to write about the one I say I love. it seems that you had a lot to say about the one you were writing out. so we are for the moments quite the opposites.

Disappointed love reveals itself in these kinds of feelings. It's only natural, John. Sad but true. In Beyoncé's words..."Why don't you love, Baby why don't you love me, when I make me so damn easy to love. I got beauty, I got class, I got style and I got ...A$$...but you don't even care to care." Go figure some people out....Read your latest. Fantastic write.

:) Thanks, my sweet. She fights for control now and again. I must say...I do like her too. She sure is more attractive that the sweet loving "anything for you" girl I really am. Thanks for the visit, Charma....you are always welcome here.

Eileen, I can see your pen smoldering in the corner. This poem is, as we say in Boston, "WICKED PISSA".
