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

You have a generous heart Crim. I gather that you were hurt but have at least partially recovered. In any case you're saying goodbye without bitterness, going the route of forgiveness rather than rage.
"intellectual demon
found no fascination with my intellect"
I can't help but think the guy's probably stuck on himself if he didn't find you fascinating. Arrogance be damned. Fine work as always Crim!

I really enjoyed this write.
Reflecting on past feeling;
The wants and "want nots"
of feelings and emotions
that seem to contradict,
The willingness to forgive
and move on> lesson well
noted. Thank for sharing

Re. A Tender Adieu
flows like a calm stream on an autumn morning... it takes great power to move on from the people we're in love or addicted to... "with hopes you prosper in all you endeavor"... was the kicker
