Photo Challenge #26 “Silver”

It’s the morning after the night before

I feel wretched

Used

Abused

Discarded.

You were such a well-mannered boy

Saying all the right words

Doing all that was expected

Chivalrous

Gallant

What happened my love?

I awake and I am alone

No note?

No word?

What am I to think?

What of your promises

The plans we made

Were they just part of your charm?

To simply have your way with me.

It was sensational

You aroused me like no other

Your sensuality left me breathless.

I awoke longing for you again

To feel your touch

Knowing the heights to which you took me,

I ache now

My body neither sated nor pleasured

My mind spins.

What did I miss in you?

How could you dismiss me so?

  1. I love that you’ve taken the female perspective beautiful Michael I can feel the ache in her voice, the sense of disillusionment and broken trust

  2. Interesting take, sadly from both sexes heartbreak and confusion can occur. You wrote from the female perspective very well my friend.

    You do a great job at relaying a poem from a woman’s pov.

    I like how you have brought in the heart break AND the love that she carries in herself simultaneously. Makes one want to reach out to her.

    Maybe he’s only stepped out to get coffee and croissants? I felt all the emotions you conveyed them so well.
