Toy Recall Poem by Chelsea DeVries

Your blue eyes wash
over my soul,
stopping my heart,
mid-rhythm.

I try to forget you
but I cannot seem
to shake the thought
that you care.

I wonder why you
let her control you
like her own personal puppet,
instead of a boyfriend.

Be free, Pinocchio.
Don't you know
you're a real boy?
You have a beating heart
and free will.

Make the choice;
communicate with me.
There is only so much
you can say

with your eyes.
