his_angel
andrea hearing him speak her name
with the resonance of love
turns my stomach.
he once told me i was
the love of his life.
what does that make her?
my thoughts flash back to
the night we imagined our
married years together.
me dulling his razor by
using it on my legs and
him coming home from work
and kissing the kids & i.
how is it that the sight of him
can still make my heart flutter?
i wonder how they spend
their time together...
does he call her his angel, too?
the mere thought makes my blood
boil and my hands shake.
our chapter is forever closed,
i know this.
and leafing through the pages
only serves to help me realize
how stupid i was, i am
to always let love slide through
my fingers & crash at my feet.
and i'm mad.
so mad at him.
at her.
mostly at myself.
they say we all have a soulmate
wandering on this earth.
perhaps i let mine go before
i realized it was him.
so, what do i do now?
