Every time I read this piece, I come away with another understanding. This writer’s tone and execution of the words is brilliant, IMO. Enjoy!
Look out the window at that ocean view. I’ll come to you in waves.
With your next appetite, Ill be exactly what you crave.
Look in the mirror and we’ll talk face-to-face.
Close your eyes. I’ll make a visit in your dreams.
Turn up the volume to your tunes, and Ill surround you in streams.
I will travel through the noise and underneath the silence by various means.
Ill be on your fingertips- the same ones you took away from me.
The fingertips that stopped touching me, pointed me to the door, and made me feel unworthy.
Yes, let me go but you won’t breath easy. I’ve already unpacked my being next to the things you promised me.
Wanted me to feel put out. Abandoned. Forgotten. Lonely.
But while you were preparing to disconnect from me…
I made a home in your memory.
That last line is a zinger! Good share.
