A Tender Adieu

 
poppies poisonous kiss  
drips from my nettled lips  
 
poison ivy thoughts choke  
were we close or was it an illusion?  
 
could be my going away  
for so long left you cold  
 
picking up the broken pieces
of all the conversations we've had  
 
holding them in my hands  
dusty with cob webs  
 
staring at them in wonder  
just a short infatuation  
 
a lust never to be more  
was my choosing  
 
though I still long for your friendship  
you never wanted that from me  
 
intellectual demon  
found no fascination with my intellect  
 
I was a sexual tease  
not to paint you as the villain  
 
letting these feelings go  
on a gentle breeze  
 
I kiss them tenderly adieu  
with hopes you prosper in all you endeavor
