She gets mad each time
I unfriend her on social media,
and I'm too scared to explain why.
Morning and night,
night and morning,
I keep seeing her
face on my smart phone,
pictures she send to
me via text,
or on social media,
her deep gaze swallowing me whole
each time I turn on my computer.
I am drowning in those eyes,
yet unable to sink or
swim,
a lost soul without
lifeboat or life jacket,
the best I can do to keep afloat
is to close my eyes
and pretend
this is not
happening,
only when I open my eyes again
all I see is her
face,
and can't explain the ache it causes me
how little control where I am
and what I am doing,
so, I shut off the spigot,
stop the flow of photos
that I am chin deep in already
unable to explain to
her why.
