Being able to overcome hearbreak |
I feel your eyes glazed on my back Trying to dig your way into my soul Trying to send a message telling me to turn around I will not be fooled by your caressing stare I will not turn to face those eyes of deception Then I feel your breath dance on my spine And my body inhales and exhales euphoria And I feel your fingers graze the thin material between you and my craving flesh I shudder in ecstasy but then turn to realize you are still far behind me And our encounter was only created by my false sense of hope Your eyes retreated back to the safety of your corner My eyes turned down to the dismalness of the floor I glanced back toward the screen of the computer and caught a glimpse of my own reflection Marked blurry by raw emotion And I saw you wiping crocodile tears; they bit and sunk their teeth into my exterior Your tears attack my skin until it’s raw and I’m bleeding but I let myself perish Because for once I remembered what it felt like when you cared The consistent numbness vanquished with that one spark of nostalgia Then I felt your eyes constricting my body Pulling me in with the smell of sweet venom And I turned to face you one last time Our eyes slithered together sizing up one another Then I remembered the open wounds that your poison still encrusted but most importantly your neglect took a hold of my judgment The one thing you did for me was showing me that a cut could be healed And that’s why I walked away from your intoxication Your eyes embedded into my scars |
