Face To Face Nowhere Near (8 of 16)

 

I have wanted to see him

I have wanted to know him

for so long

His face was a Pandora's box

I should've left buried in his eyes

His song

once seducing

now slashed my skin

and my heart

as the vision of him

thankfully blurred

behind tears

Until he moved from

dangerous

to desperate

pleading 

for purchase

begging

not to be lost
