They Make Me Smile

Should Have…..

Sat upon the hill

blushed sky

silhouetted birds

against fluffed white clouds

emerald grass beneath feet

pondering

essence of self

of love

of life

of everything.

Relationships fail

through lack of faith

lack of trust

lack of love

or

just because…..

people fall together

they fall apart

neither at fault

life happens that way.

Tears fall

memories

ghosts of times passed…..

lingering upon my lips

taste of kisses

none ever sweeter

than the ones

you covered me with.

Your fingers

made me witless

legs shaking

moaning whimpers

calling your name.

Shaking my head

anger does rise

for you are now dead

to me

in my life

for all eternity.

I should have ignored the beep.

I should have ignored the ding.

Had I…..

message would not have to be unseen

heart not torn apart

your infidelity

right there

no longer able to deny

my world

blown

from ashes I shall slowly rise.
