Be back after Mardi Gras……

sucker punched

you struck a

as you crumpled my
heart

Obsession – Part 1

a day came when she realized
she was obsessed with him

at first she only looked forward to his
appearance at the back entrance,
the lazy way he leaned against the

his quick smile with that glint
of devilment in his brown eyes,
the way his clothes fit his body
perfectly,
the shine of his black shoes

it was all so mesmerizing
