Only Everyday...

Do I ever think of him?

Do I miss his loving voice?

Do I ever feel alone?

Hate myself?

Regret my choice?

Nope. Sorry.

 I can’t say that I do.

I released him long ago.

Way before he bid me adieu.

Do I ever miss him?

Find myself in a daze?

Do I ever wish that our love

Hadn’t been a phase?

Do I ever miss how he loved me?

Or how he always cared?

Do I ever look in my heart where he was

Only to discover that he’s not there?

No, honey bunch.

As I said before.

That’s an old chapter in my life.

I’ve closed and locked that door.

But do I ever think of how he touched me?

Gently kissed my lips?

Slowly rubbed my thighs?

Always gave me pure bliss?

Do I ever think of his smile?

His whole hearted laugh?

Do I ever try thinking of my future,

But get caught up in our past?

Do I ever cry myself to sleep

And wake to a damp pillow?

Do I ever get the urge to call?

Desire coming over me in billows?

No. I’m sorry.

That never occurs.

The emotions that I’ve buried

Are dead and without words.

But do I ever think of loving him?

Try to find out what went wrong?

Do I ever want to fix things up?

Do I miss what was one so strong?

No. That never happened

On any yesterdays or todays.

Do I ever try to lie to myself?

Only everyday…

thank u very much Ms. Scarlet. Thank you for takin the time to read my poem.

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
