Michelle
you
you were my second skin
the familiar warmth
the comforting caress
the soft sound that rang like bluebells in my ears

and now you're gone
a void of cold, bitter air
the comfort no longer lingers
your song no longer sings

all that's left is a sliver of your touch
a slight warmth encapsulated by a cold frost
it still warms my chest
i'll be okay

As I said before,
Men love me for my body

They adore the soft curves
And the pink of my lips

The arch of my back
The sweetness between my hips

My ex-lover treasured me for
My tender touch

His fingers were tiny flames
Burning to the third-degree

A new man came around
Begging and pleading

He requested the pleasure I hold
Shaking limbs and muffled moans

But I know he didn't want me
He desired the pleasure

He craved my body
For RS

(A lot of word *****)

Maybe this is too much but it all needs to come out somehow.

"Would you do anything besides ***? I want to be a better person. I really do. I just want to make someone feel good for a change. I have this craving."

Plant me elsewhere
Remove me without a care

Pull me by my roots
And forget to water me

Fill the hole with someone new -
A delicate white daisy

Tend to her and show her the sun
Tell her that this is "love"

Watch as I go through a drought
Praying for fictitious rain

Lost in a heatwave of doubt
Wishing I was numb to the pain
For WY

Commitments built by words
To be mentioned but never confirmed

Promises spoken
Only to be broken

Your mouth's
In a season of drought

Your lips did not send me rain
Tongue's so dry; it burst into flames

You are all talk
Words expounding; and knees locked
For WY

Short and sweet.
Like your "love".

Go ahead
Pretend

Please, act like
I was never a part of your life

Ignore my existence
What is the difference?

Disregard the broken promises
Prove my hypothesis

Neglect my presence
Because there's bliss within
Ignorance
For WY. For the coward you are. For how great you are at pretending.

I see right through you.

Gowns we never thought we would wear
Caps fit to ruin great hair

Gym floor shoe squeaks
Senior year: complete

Stuck between a friend and a ****
Watching the hands on the drowsy clock

Receiving a paper and a handshake
Twelve years too late

Cap in hand and smiles all around
My hat took flight, only to kiss the ground

But my timing was off
My clouded thoughts

Fuzzy and murky due to
A simple "I love you"

For the boy who waited
Seven years to say it

Know that I won't forget you
For TW
