You Poem by Daniela Iacoppi

You

Rating: 5.0


I'm lying here
Thinking of You.

I'm not allowed.

Something You started
Long ago.
A game you laughingly disavowed.

A door You open and never go through.
My broken heart with someone other than you.

Wish I were yours,

Wish he were You.


You come to me,
But quickly turn away.
My imagination, you say.
My emotional dependency
Levied by your cruel propensity,
Leaving me spiraling between delight and misery,
Beguiling, repelling, relentlessly endearing.


No laughter anymore,
Tears as I become someone I abhor.


Dignity but by a whisper sustained,
Why don't You see
My pain?

Selfish,
Charming,
Waspish,
Alarming,
Astute,
Resolute,

You.
No more.
