Tracy Binette – “Foolish?” (2008)

October 4, 2008 at 4:44 pm (Poetry & Literature)

Unwanted words-
Nonreciprocating glances-
Broken hearts & second chances-
Dreams that have yet to be told-
Tell me, why is it your hand I long to hold?

A brief smile sets across my lips-
Your gentle caresses upon my hips-
Salty tears drain down my face
This faulty love is such disgrace-

You & me engulfed in blame-
Running from fear-
hiding in shame-
Never to know if it ever was real-
Bitter & numb, unable to feel…
