Want

you wanted me for yourself

but you also wanted others

to want you

you wanted their hungry looks

their hands on your knee,

your back,

your neck,

your chest...

you wanted their flirtatious whispers,

the smell of their breath as they leaned in,

hoping to kiss your lips

you wanted others to want you so much that

you forgot about me
