reciprocation: you choose

a love letter from you

—

  reciprocation.

  syllables slipping off my tongue with such ease i'd wish reciprocation from you for me in its truest form.

  reciprocation.

  requited love from you for me, not a difficult concept to grasp, but a challenging one to understand.

my eyes on you, were your eyes on me? your pretty brown eyes constantly fixated on a phantom in the distance, were your eyes on me?

reciprocation.

  my oblivion, your awareness, did we drift till we fell apart?

  spoke with bitterness, you did, did i understand the weight of your words?

  oblivion, delusion, ignorance, did i tear apart the meticulousness moulded into your being?

  but fall apart we didn't.

fall apart we didn't when i thought we would.

my delusion, my selfishness, my shame, not once did i understand the weight of your love, the weight of your concern, the weight of your reciprocation.

not once did i understand my privilege.

  wrap your fingers around my neck, i'd say. your long bony fingers, stretched around the circumference of my neck, suffocating me of the words we once exchanged. wrap your fingers around my neck, i'd say, wrap your fingers tightly around my neck.

"enhanced vision," my optic nerve whispers, nerve impulses rushing through my body. my pupils dilate, my vision enhanced, i'd watch you from far away, your tenderness a reflection of our once envied love, your charisma a explanation.

our love wasn't one to last, but it was one to be remembered.

reciprocation.

remember me: my cheeks flushed red, my hair a mess. remember me: my head nestled in your chest. remember me: your eyes staring straight into mine.

remember me while you still loved me.

remember me: reciprocation.

this isn't a long chapter, perhaps labelled more of a poem, but it's what i can give you for now.
