Challenge
Crushes can be maddening, but the desperation of an established relationship is often worse. Write a vignette in which your love is frustrated by insecurity.
Touch me
The softness of his touch,
Brought memories of a harsher hand.
Him, Kissing tears away,
Me, Pushing him away,
The couch being his date,
On an unforgettable Saturday night.
As he ignores my apologies,
The bed has long forgotten his outline.
As I have long forgotten the warmth,
Of fingers enveloped around my waist, not my neck,
Yet cannot erase from my mind the scene,
On an unforgettable Saturday night.
