Other girls have kissed those lips and other fingers have worn paths over your bristled cheekbones. You've heard other voices call your name, you've walked in and out of lives I will never know. Another girl or two or twenty has held your heart in fickle hands and your body in a temporary bed. You've shattered other women with the haughty turn of your head, and sudden withdrawal of your attention. But none of that matters, to me. When I think of these things as I am bound to do, there is a sharp, jagged pain between my breasts that denial will erase. You didn't know me then. If I could spin back in time and meet you first, your past would collapse into never was. I am your heart, there is not need for any other. |
