In Another Life She Would've Loved You

Your jealousy rises at night 

Knowing the hot breath of another rises on the gape of her neck 

Your hair follicles straight

Brows furrowed 

You can feel her 

Feel the hands of another going past her cheek bone 

If you love her, why won't she stay?

If you give her the world, why won't she stick around to get to know it better?

Pretty girl, she is 

But, her mind encapsulates you in a spider web 

Her interconnecting theories 

The artists she spits out like wildfire 

The various times she stays home trying to draw or even write a few words on paper

To come closer to her idols that hang on her wall

A queen size bed you gave her

Just for her to drag other male counterparts to enthrall her

While you're away on business

She utters love so softly 

But, gives her attention to all who seek 

She gives 

She gives

But, when you finally decide to reciprocate...

She falls away 

Never to be heard again
