Poetry – Then

Like an electricity spark,
You felt it within you
Love at first sight
Maybe it’s something

He gave a smile,
Warm and hot
Maybe he’s not Joromi,
Who misses the green light

But you’re a Bambi,
You hid your heart
You don’t want to feel like a fool

You met again

His smile,
Warmer and hotter,
‘Maybe, he kinda really likes me
Perhaps I won’t coulda woulda shoulda Anymore’

Like oxygen,
You breathe him in
Your house,
He set on fire
Pleasurable pain

Boy! You screamed
Forever! You wished

Now,

He acts all big man,
But he doesn’t know nothing.

Four years you tried,
All the time sacrificed
‘Try some therapy’, you tell him now
‘I want you back’, he says

You shake your head,
‘Sorry boy, but that was then’
