Thinking, What Ifs

Looking back

Reminiscing

Maybe I shouldn't have let you go

I should allowed you talk me into staying

Then again, maybe not.

She watched you

Crush

Didn't wait to see the burn

Yet I guess somehow you passed that.

So now after walking on half-baked truths,

Hog-washed lies,

Down-right tales,

She comes right back again

Plagued with the same thoughts that drove her away.

What if she had not hooked up with your friend?

Or you with hers?

If you had given yourselves some space

To think things through.

What if your friends had not pried?

All well-intentioned of course.

Years gone,

Hearts have broken, been broken,

Healed, patched, mended,

You remain the only one she wants

Yet

One thing keeps you apart.

The one question that plagues her mind

The matter of beliefs.

What if...

Adrift

We are drifting apart.
The things keeping us afloat,
Cherished memories,
Residual love,
Potential gossip,
Prying questions.
The sad part?
You don't even see it!
Then maybe we can do something about it.

Perspective- Her Version

Silence;
Long, penetrative;
Silence.
I saw it coming.
The purpose of your silence.

Random, baseless rows,
Accusations, perceived offenses.

No, late, forgotten rendezvous.
You have no time for me.
Oh, I knew what you were about.

Breaking news.
Don't waste time,
Tell me what is on your mind.

I will just have to call you out on it.
Yep.
We are over!

***Please forgive me. I was not able to get a gal's point when a guy breaks up with her. It looks like most guys orchestrate a scene for the gal to call for a breakup. Oh! I just got an idea.

Day dreaming,
As usual, about you.
Can't wait tell we meet.

You called,
In the middle of Friday.
"Let's meet at after work."
You are coming over.
I mentally calculate
How long it will take me to get home,
Refresh myself,
Get your favorite things ready.
I can't wait to see you.

I feel good about this.
You said you had something to say.
I know.
I have something to say too.
Excitement
My head in a swarm.

You are here.
Already!
You look good.
I, smiling like a kid with candy.

Ah?
Words;
Unexpected words.
Say what?
A moment,
My heart needs to catch up with my head.
Twirling thought waves,
You want some space; to think us through.
To think us through,
Space,
Think,
Us,
Through...
