Cutting Me Down

To start with...

heart races,

eyes light up,

cheeks flush,

smile persists,

butterfiles in the stomach,

the good ones, this time.

(mis)read signs,

believe in fate,

read horoscopes,

ignore bad omens,

daydream often,

the good ones, again.

And not too much later...

phone's silent,

inbox empty,

dreams are troubled,

silences taunt,

revisit old favorites,

pics and places.

dreams crash,

hopes dash,

old monk beckons,

all friends reckon,

moving on,

just doesn't get easier.

But a little down the road...

we start again. 

From the top now.

PS: You thought this was about love, didn't you?
