I’m cold as ice, paradise.
& I’ll watch you walk out that door—
like so many women have done before.
I finally found my voice—
do not think I didn’t have a choice.
Your mediterranean skin
& your bronze tones.
Roman empress— this Celtic warrior pays allegiance to you no longer
— because I’ve finally become stronger.
W/ my blue eyes, deep as the Atlantic,
& my long, wild hair—
blowing in the wind w/ out a care.
You look like a fairy tale.
Those inviting looks & your soft, supple lips.
Your curves & your edges—
& those gorgeous goddess hips.
But like any fairy tale,
it is nothing more than a dream.
It’s empty, like the calories in ice cream.
There is nothing there, because you don’t care
& I can’t bare that we lost our flair,
but I have to wonder—
was it ever even there?
