The Runaway Love

Poetry Slam

Why when I feel as thou I'm over you. You come back and all my feelings come rushing back. That date in May means nothing to me anymore. I'm over you or at least that's what me brain is telling me. My heart says yes Chimene go for it. But my brain says Chimene you don't need the pain anymore. 5/5 will just be another day in the week. Nothing more than that.

As I finish reading my poem. Everyone snaps. I am walking off stage when my phone buzzes.

Text convo

Bri: Plzzz txt me

Bri: Chi please I want to talk to you

Bri: please just text or call me. I know you are reading these.

Bri: You. I want you. You know I love you. I really do. Your my life. I need you.

Me: sure you do.

Bri: Baby girl I do. Please just give me another chance.

Bri: baby please. I love you. And I didn't cheat.

Me: Thts not what you twig ass bitch Emma is texting me.

Bri: Chi Im telling the truth. Emma and me never did anything. I am in love with you. Not her.

Me: well Bri what do you want to do.

Bri: wok this out. Because I love you and your my life. And I miss your smile and your laugh.

Me: well meet me at my house after the poetry slam. And we can talk this out.

Next up was Jamie with her Poem Over You!

When I dated you it was all fun and games. You were my best friend. I though I was in love. But I was wrong. You were bad for me. Made m do things I never wanted to. Took me places I wanted to go but never know about. I had a lot of first with you. First kiss first love first person I really cared about. The weeks after we broke up. All I did was cry and cry. I always thought we were forever. But that did not happen. I said I loved you. But you lied about were you were and who you were with. Why oh why did I listen to you. An feed into your bullshit. Now your back again texting and calling saying you love me but is that really true or is it lies your telling me again. Are you feeding me lies? Is this for you to get me to open up and then brake my heart again. I'm like a delicate flower and your the cat that broke me.

Wow. I feel tears run down my face. Then I walk to me car. And cry my way home.
