It Hurts...

Based on a lost... something-or-other.
I feel as though someone is slipping further and further from me.
Hiding behind
White picket-fences,
Too scared to fly.
Unable to move,
Bound by
Silver shackles,
And deep,
Mysterious,
Dark eyes.
Gold-plated silences
Threaten to choke,
Swallow and destroy.
Dressed to impress,
Too inhibited to speak the truth.
Fleeting glances,
Coy giggles,
Demure smiles.
Trying to appeal to
Blind eyes,
No longer paying attention,
Engrossed in the next
Pretty thing who
Struts
on
by,
Extroverted and blunt.
No games.
No back-and-forth.
No playing “hard-to-get”.
Does that make her
Easy?
Unlike me.
All the things I
Just.
Can’t.
Be.
I’m undesirable,
Uninteresting,
Unwelcome,
Unwanted,
Un-everything,
With the exception of
Unhurt.
Lost lust,
Lost love,
Lost whatever-it-is
Or could-have-been…
It hurts.
