Temporary Fix

Smoldering eyes watching my every move
Even when you did not look at me. I never
Felt that you had the need to prove
Something to me and to yourself. Whatever
This was, it was only going to be temporary
And never permanent. In that moment I needed
Something opposite of light and airy.
I wanted something fiery and we succeeded
In having that. I felt the need to be wanted.
I know that this was only a temporary fix.
There was no need to be bonded
To you forever. This was not a time for tricks
And games. You played them and me well.
You left me on edge and a new type of high
Just like you left me in a new type of hell.
 I did not know you would be the one to fly
Me to new places and sights I have never been
To. I would never pin you as the commitment
Type ever. You still kept me hoping for the sun
To keep on rising. You kept yourself distant
And you never stopped chasing after
Other girls even when we were still going
On. I was never lucky enough to hear your laughter.
I knew that everything was going to be closing
Down and the lights were finally being turned off.
