Love
Where do I go from here
The slate is clean
I've depleted myself
I'd like to move on now
Fixate on other desires
That need not involve
People other than myself
If it's not for me
I'll completely understand
But I saw a flicker of red
In eyes cast directly at me today
And I wondered if he wanted me
Am I something someone wants
Love
Is there more beneath the bottom
How do I process these needs
How do I discard the rest of the hurt
Lingering like cologne on a throw pillow
I just down know
Whether I want to hold or burn it
