My breast swelled and I feared the lump in my heart that melted whenever he was around

My stomach clenched and I feared the desire that pooled there whenever he came too close

My swollen lips curved and I feared my deep reaction of need whenever he smiled

My skin burned and I feared the moan that escaped my lips whenever he touched

My eyes were tired and I feared how much I had to watch him sleep whenever he turned my way

My eyes opened and all my fears became reality when he was no longer there

My lost tore through me and I feared that I would remember the blood on the couch whenever I thought of him
