Splinter
It’s been over a week
Since you left
And when my friends ask
How I’ve been
I say
Like a splinter
Leaving my hand.
Though it’s gone
The soreness lingers on.

Volunteer turned victim
How quick
The damaged girl
Moves On
Without hesitation
Or consideration
For fear
Of being figured out
Leaving behind
A box full of
Broken new toys.
I’m just another casualty in your game of love.

Blinded by my own crusade for love
I look at the vacant spot
Where your car was parked
For forty five minutes
And wonder
When the lies overlapped
The truth.
You reluctantly left
The night we first kissed
Then two weeks later
You willingly disappeared
Answering my doubts
With silence.

The silent killer
I pick up the phone,
It’s not your name.
I answer the door,
It’s not your face.
I meet someone new,
It isn’t you.

I could never wrap you around my finger
If you were jewelry
You would be
A mood ring;
Pretty to look at
But hard to read.
Now you’re just a conversation piece.

You, me, and a broken dream
I no longer have the luxury
To hold you tight
So I’ll slow dance with you
Late at night
When my head and heart
Fight
To preserve the good parts
You left behind.
They outweighed the bad, and you know it.

Yellow
Stop.
Go.
Red light.
Green light.
I love you.
I don’t know.
My cautious behavior was justified when you left.
