The blood is boiling, <br />the kisses are fading, <br />your touch is all that lingers now, <br />those lips as sweet as forbidden fruit, <br />are now gone forever, <br />as we turn the other way, <br />our feelings still there, <br />but we deny them to each other, <br />tell ourselves they never existed, <br />that our hearts were lying to us, <br />we speak from time to time, <br />as I die slowly every time she moves on, <br />she denies what lies in her heart and mind, <br />I stand where I am, <br />not moving, <br />only waiting, <br />the Earth keeps spinning, <br />she avoids me whenever she can, <br />denying what could have been, <br />never to give another chance, <br />its simple bliss, <br />and nothing less<br /><br />Brandon Chiles<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/endless-winter-nights/
