Not Long Enough
I am numb to your indecision,
So quickly to give in,
To a strangers pretty smile.
“Yeah, it’s been a while.”
Not long enough for you,
I suppose, I should have known.
I even questioned it,
Suspected, what my body already knew.
Who else have you belonged to?
“Nobody else.”
You said smiling, looking me in the eyes.
Another lie, I knew I couldn’t believe,
Poison seeped through your teeth,
As you walked away from me.
Leaving me numb; I let you leave.
I blamed myself, I blamed my body.
“It’s just my stupid anxiety.”
