I wrote my thoughts
On parchment as soft as your skin
Hoping I would finally
Feel something again.
With ink as red
As the blood of your lips,
Oh darling how,
Did we end up like this?

For me,
Being next to you feels like home.
Safe. Finally.
For you, I'm just a rest stop.

You softened me
Like butter
With you sweet words and
Hungry looks
And for a while I really did feel
Coveted.
What a fool I made myself into.

Snowflake kisses
Are almost as good
As the real thing.

I strung mistletoe,
On every bough,
And waited patiently,
For you.
But you were the only one,
Who never showed up.

We don't do that romantic ****,
He said ,
Because we're not lovers, just friends,
But darling, oh,
I romanticize you every day
Audrey Maday Nov 2016
I spend my life in exit rows
Ready to pull the door at moments notice
And escape
