No More X's and O's
I can no longer write X’s and O’s
For you don’t seem to understand
I have given you my heart
Even though we’re not hand in hand
If I can kiss everywhere I want
The X will show every spot that I haunt
The O is the ultimate embrace
As I wrap you in my satin and lace
No, I will not grace this page
With the desire, I cannot have
It brings me no joy, so I am sad
Rest assured that you’re in my thoughts
And my sweetest dream you have brought
But there will be no more X’s and O’s
Between you and I
You have moved on
and so shall I.

No, I will not grace this page
With the desire, I cannot have
It brings me no joy, so I am sad
Rest assured that you’re in my thoughts
And my sweetest dream you have brought
But there will be no more X’s and O’s
Between you and I
You have moved on
and so shall I.

This does have a melancholic but honest feel to it for sure, Fia. You are spelling it out & sometimes that is what's needed. Reminded me of Annie Lennox's (from The Eurythmics) song: 'No More I Love You's' 😐

I like the allusion to Xs and Os, how love notes are written. The poem feels like a pop song.
