It Didn't Work Yet

We disregarded
right or wrong
not knowing which it was,
and cannibalized each other
by candlelight.

I was positive then
that I'd leave you exhausted
and walk away
sore and satisfied,
having tucked you into
my list of conquests.

But I left you that night
and crawled into bed
with pieces of you pleasantly
all over me.
I have tried since then
to brush them off,
and they won't go.

Your words, your smile, your laugh,
remain persistant
in my heart's eyes.

I hope to love you always
from afar.
