The Pretend
By freudian-slip
Magical
imaginary fingers
remain stuck
Roman pillars
tower
well overdone intentions
still
the focus of everything
it was never about
crooked neck turns
to reach around my foggy
memory
pinch
the broken fingers
toss the coin into the
gutter
make a wish
lover lost
as he drowns his good intentions
wtih selfish
thoughts
of how this came about
the fantasy
created the end
never quite potent enough
to overcome
poisonous insecurities
what you were then
meant much less
to me
then now
unclasped
empty hands
so let us
let go
uninvited expectations
and try
to
play
pretend...
