You!

You. 1. The whole town gossips about your return. It is happening again. It is urgent like the pains of labor My streams of tears are making their way down the slippery slope of my soft skin. You are a resurgence. Painful and delicate 2. It is not real Just a flicker or two of you. Never thought of this As love or not. Just a stupid mist Clouding my rational thoughts Holding me captive in my heart. 3.I have moved on, or so I thought. You broke my fire hydrant walls with only a touch. Like the moon envious of the sun, I hate every fiber of your being, Yet you control my heart with a mere glance. Each night in bed, glaring at your poster on my wall. Why do this to me? I wish you were but a nightmare. 4. Howl in anger when my name is said Do everything to eject me out of your brain Fail at every try And you know why I am not mistake for which you seek forgiveness, But a sin, Waiting to condemn you in the flames of hell
