Like we used to be













By Nikki Quismondo

We used to high five eachother when we bowled a strike
listen to sweet love songs, and look into each other's eyes
you'd read me your sexy poetry
and I'd read you mine
i'd wear sexy heels so you can notice my arch
you'd notice my scarfs, earrings, or sparkling jewelry
and give nice compliments about my ensembles,
but now, that we're not a couple anymore
but still friends,
our bowling games have no high fives,
i've had to change the stations on the radio at your request,
you refuse to notice the colors I'm wearing or even look at me,
the poetry you read is mundane,
you've blocked me from reading my blog
everything about us, is now dull and ordinary..
we are not like we used to be....
