Challenge
when did you realize that you were in love? or when did you realize you fell out of love?
poetry or prose. no need to tag, as i read all entries <3
pompous ass
I’m not sure you like me
and that’s ok
fine line between love & hate, see?
It’s rarely any other way.
You admire my spirit
how it sparks and shines
then secretly covet,
jealousy blinds.
Your eyes skim my body
i know what you need
chemistry is never our problem,
in truth it's your greed.
Driven by ego
you punish & shame
hurling insults like snowballs,
seeking others to blame.
There once was a time
i’d make efforts to conceal
my soul in its prime,
so you could feel.
Those days have passed
i’ve uncovered the truth
free at last,
toll paid with my youth.
I’m not sure you like me
and that’s ok
truth is,
I never needed you anyway.
