I was sure Sure of myself Thought I was above clichés Live to please someone? Psh i'd think "it'd never come to that" But then he was there He'd been there a while No stranger A comfortable smile I kid you not It came to me like a slap in the face This sudden urge? This unrivalled adoration? It felt so out of place Its the simple things Your little gap between your teeth The effortless and energising teasing I began to see see parts of me within you The quiet thoughtfulness The smile you had for everyone Always a thousand times more beautiful when directed at me

love isn't just for losers
Fickleness you are my foe I used to find you sweet A laughable, childish quality Something I'd grow out of But you've ruined me I've loved so many Only to lose interest Fickleness you are my foe

fickleness you are my foe
Longing can be delicious The build up that begins as soon as you part Sits in your tummy Warm and heavy Its okay It reminds you of him

it used to be a good ache
I scold myself repeatedly Why didn't my heart consult my mind before falling for him? Why did it bypass my logic? How did I love so easily? So quickly? So strongly? The strength I knew not until he examined my love Toyed with it Pushed the boundaries Exhumed it That he ripped open to study Wondering all the while if I was worthy He shook his head and passed back my love No, its not what I thought He said No, its not what I want He said I blinked with disbelief and stared at what he had returned He'd destroyed Picked apart No, I cried out as he turned to leave Leaving me holding my heart which he'd massacred This isn't what I gave you I stuttered I offered my heart renewed by your essence Plump, glowing and infinite Full of love and hope Of endless possibilities You've given me back a wreck A shell of what was How was it still able to be be radiating such love? Such intense raw adoration? I pray for it to begin to lessen I pray, I pray, I pray Seemingly to no avail

A shell of what was
Only side by side with you do I realise my womanly worth. You'd stroke my arm,  always happily surprised at how soft and smooth I am, almost immediately bringing it up to your lips. You'd kiss, nibble and lick. Once satisfied your fingertips had not been tricked you'd move to my lips. 2 gentle fingers would sweep across my bottom lip warning them of the assault to ensue. Mouth on mouth our tongues dancing with each other, I felt our souls collide, it was then not pausing for permission they conspired to be one.
