After Love

by Monique- Taurus - Not entered

He runs from her as she runs to him
They come to the same place they often begin
She kisses him, he pushes her, and kisses the air
Thinking her memory will be as good as her there
They bump into one another and cast it aside
For they have failed every time they have tried
Hearts are empty and time is long
Yet their bodies stay happy and strong
There is a need in her so great inside
But he says that her emotions have always lied
They are not true, he says and sneers
Mocks the very feelings she has felt for years
Her body feels small as he looks down over her
Smelling her hair and eyeing the beauty of her
She feels the love for him in this time of pain
It causes hurt in her heart, soul, and brain
But she drudges on and walks away
Only to return again the next day
As they look for meaning in life they had before
They have tried opening door after door
And they know they have to come back every day
To glare at the one that made them this way
And wish for once to make the magic come into the light
Or at least get the the pain out of mind and out of sight

Reason for writing:

    My boyfriend of two years broke up with me for no reason and we are both very hurt. We can't get back what we used to have, but we can't deny it was a big part of our lives.
