THE BREAK-UP
PERFECT

from the color of your skin,

shape of your chin,

the way your cheeks rise when you smile,

who you are as a person,

i mean damn - you are someone that is going to get somewhere in this life, I can see it, you don't even need my say so. you never seem to do.

all that being said,

despite how I feel about you,

that I am going to see you and talk to you a significant amount of times in the future,

🕊️

despite not having looked in your eyes enough,

i rest my case, i think that was it,

i have admitted that I like you enough, - it almost repulses you at this point

written enough articles and poems about you,

i have taken quite enough no replies, no call backs - even to your admission

I have chased enough, pursued enough, apologized enough,

unless our paths cross in some other spontaneous, mystical way, apart from the common spaces we share,

or if you have a change of heart, and I still feel the same.

this is it,

thank you for all the memories, lessons, — you toughened me up in someway, priceless

i will laugh at the days, that thoughts of you kept me up at night,

i will cherish the moments of near romance,

the long phone calls,

talks about religion, this and that,

I will indulge myself in the thoughts of what could have been,

And the shreds of feelings that will keep on coming,

I will write poems in secret,

I will admit to people that there was this girl I really liked

I will do it, until it wear off from my memory like an old tattoo

I will do it, until they day that I don’t see the what I see in you anymore

Ooh WHAT A NIGHT!
