She Said Wait

A girl seeing her ex with his new gf for the first time...

 

She said wait

And reached for his arm.

He pulled it away and she knew

That he was gone,

He was lost in her arms,

And lost in the green sheen

Of her peach seed shaped eyes.

She could see his hand wrap

In her ropey brown hair,

Could see his heart

Pound harder

Than it had for her.

His mouth was

A slab of concrete

And then it weakened

It cracked, and softened.

His irises danced,

Vibrated like they had a pulse.

And knew that this creature

Walking behind him was her.
