I’m Over You I’m over you. I rarely cry. My heart was broke, that’s not a lie. I’m stronger now than I was then. I seldom think of where I’ve been. I don’t recall your sensual style; the way your lips bent in a smile; your curves, your touch, your kiss divine - I almost never pay them mind. I rarely ever think of how you stole my breath and even now forget the taste of dewy lips and graceful feel of fingertips. I can’t remember the last time ( November 6th at 8 or 9) we were together, you and me. I’m over you, dear, can’t you see? I’m over you its been so long since I last listened to our song. You know the one from our first dance that goes, “please give me one last chance.” And speaking of that fated tune reminds me of the night the moon hung low and bright up in the sky reflecting off your blue, blue eyes as we made love, the radio and we in sync, so soft and slow. Forget that thought! I dare regress. I always seem to find it best to leave the past as past should be; erasing thoughts of you and me. So I go on, now, day by day I’m over you - but that was yesterday. I am nothing special...and my name will soon be forgotten,but I've loved another with all my heart and soul,and to me,this has always been enough.~N.S |

I don't know you but I still know how wonderful this poem is and -- maybe -- I know you a tiny bit more for reading. Thank you. Alison |
