to him.

Ruth Fadairo

You appreciated me

Everything about me

Every inch of me

From my laugh, my natural face, my body..

You appreciated ME.

You would stare at me, in my natural state

Embrace my face, no makeup, no nothing

And you’d still call me beautiful.

 

I’d blush at every compliment you’d hit me with

Almost as if I was constantly shot with one of Cupid’s arrows.

I even blushed at the thought of you, let alone the sight of you.

Wow, how mesmerising you were.

Like a dream, like a dream, like a dream… Were you even real?

Did you ever exist? Did our LOVE ever exist?

 

I’d admire your face, as you sleep.

You skin, as soft as cotton… I’d stroke against it.

Again, and again and again.

Stroking your skin, oh your soft skin. Oh how I miss your skin

I miss you!

 

Yet, you left? You left! Why?

Five years on and I’m still yet to know, why you left me?

You told me it was real

You sold me dreams, you sold me lies

And yet like the fool I was… I bought them.

Bought them with a childish grin on my face.

Why? Because... Because I…
