A moment of silence

for all the men

who realized

they blew all

their chances with me

Like dust in the wind

…..

*

There are zero doubts in my mind

that you still think of me

*

There are zero doubts in my mind

that you still feel the love

you tried to hide

*

The only doubt I have

is if you will ever grow

brave enough

to speak the feelings

you hide

behind those poker eyes

*

Just like the rest of them

that called me the Heartbreaker

when I went away

*

You had to get the last word in

You had to feel the power

from saying you are the one who left

*

Because you were too afraid

I was too good to be true

Or even worse...

That I am true

and I'm too good for you

*

The fear stirred

like a wild mustang

that one day

the truest love

you've ever known

might leave you

*

The fear that it

it is harder to replace

someone like me

compared to replacing

someone like you

*

You're right

Your doubts

reaffirmed your fears

*

I would have been easily yours

but you chose to discard

a fine rarity

and recycle

your trepidations

with your stoic appearance

*

Keep swiping right

You won't find another like me

on your tinder profile

*
