The other day
You said that you regretted me more than anything.
Great. I'm a regret.
Not a person.
Just a regret.

And now?
You say you'll never see me in the same light.
So, how do you see me?
I can feel you looking through my clothes.
See me
Curved
Pale
Naked.

An age ago
Before everything
You had your arms around my waist
Snaking downwards.

You whispered something in my ear;
"Kittens"
Why?
I don't know.
Kittens are sweet
Fluffy
Innocent.

But, like you, they scratch.

High above the mucky-muck, castle made of clouds; there sits Wonderboy, sitting oh so proudly....

It's strange how things can change about how people feel about you... this is a wonderful expression of that, contrasting past and present. I know how all of that is, and I hope writing this helped you deal with some of your feelings. Again, good job.

Most of us go to our grave with our music still inside of us.

Liked this one heaps El, I like your voice within your pieces.

"Great. I'm a regret.
Not a person.
Just a regret."
