Beards and Broken Hearts

 

I guess I should have known from the last time…

You ghosted me

Left me looking at my phone for over a week

I remember the rawness of my emotions then

The burning sting

 I feel it again

You could have said something.

Anything

Spoken any word of rejection

I am a rational person- I really am

I would have understood

But the way you left me teetering

 Is cold

I keep thinking maybe there is a chance…

Maybe you will have sweet words after all

But I receive nothing…Just a blank screen

I said you were cold…but I actually think you are

Edging on cruel.  

I gave myself to you…

In my sweetest form

You might have felt it was a mistake

Or decided then on my bed this would be the last

But for me…I lay there after you left

With this smile on my lips

I awoke with a cramp in my face

I smiled while I slept

Thinking of your light eyes and beard

Imagining how easy I could fall in love with you

How great we could be

But, no I am a silly woman

Thinking it was more than one night.

Like you respected me

The closeness we shared Saturday night

Was one sided

And you have ghosted me again.
