Curious?
You must be.
I saw you stalking
the trail behind my house.
******
You said,
good bye
months ago
but there you were.
******
Curious?
You see me
flourish as I grow
my empire.
******
Lost me?
Of course you did.
and you only
get to see and not partake.
******
Curious?
You wonder
who comes and go
in and out of my life.
******
No one
not one
I will not allow
crazy in my life.
******
Curious?
I am sure
you are especially
when you saw my new car.
*******
I am doing
what is best
for me
you are a memory.
******
Curious?
You dialed
my number
and the record shows.
******
I choose
to decide
who has
access to my energy.
******
Curious?
I am sure
you are
lurking in the dark.
******
I smile
as you drive
by my lit
porch light.
******
Curious?
Regretful?
Lost?
I am sure you are.
******
That choice
was yours,
Live with it.
Your consequences not mine.

I love this poem. ♥️💓
Wow. I feel like there is an ending here that maybe won't be so kind...
