Again, and Not So Sweet

by: shira

If I never see you again, there will be no same delicious mistake

I hope you never see anything in me again
Because maybe if you don’t
Then I won’t feel any of you
That you throw me so mercilessly, your eyes

I can’t stand it when you look at me like that
There’s no choice but to be what I was then
And I want you to see me now
But your eyes reject the new picture

I refuse to take anything less than all of you and your eyes
Maddening
Because they’re beautiful
And you can’t even see that
