i love writing with ellipsis……. i love the drama…….. the mystery…….. you dont know what im going to say……. you keep waiting……. you think im gonna write some more…… well……. think again……….
More you might like
the aroma of you
you smelled of sweet mint and scented soap when you pulled me close
a fresh odor clung to you
the scent of a spring day after a slight drizzle
combined with the aroma of fresh laundry
clean and light with the hint of flowers that playfully tickled my nose
you were soft to touch cloud-like even
and I was a kite, drifting away, so lost in the embrace I would slip out of it
until your secure grip grounded me
sheltered in your arms I shed my trepidations as a butterfly sheds it cocoon
and though I was silent the whole time my insides were screaming aloud
and I worried I wouldn’t be able to control the urge to reveal just how hooked I am
how infatuated with you I feel
I swear to god that everything almost spilled out
I imagined telling you and you telling me you felt the exact same
and I, ecstatic would hold you tighter
until the but
(for there is always a but)
but not for me.
for her.
the girl you spend your days daydreaming about as I write about you
the girl who doesn’t deserve to be the center of your thoughts and yet seems to be the only thing you consider
the girl you pine after fruitlessly
the girl i will never be.
so I released you
let the wind carry me off like the kite I am
because I no longer had you to stabilize me
I tell myself maybe I’ll find another to seek shelter with
yet weeks later I still haven’t forgotten the fragrance of fresh air, mint, and rain that was branded over my senses
a scent that used to make me feel weightless
that now reeks of pain
me, gently pulling my consciousness back into my body: please keep your arms and legs inside the ride at all times
the fact that im not sitting on someone’s lap rn getting kissed is unacceptable
