      TO STEAL HIM BACK AGAIN

      making a lasting impression

      on the object of your affection

      salivating and drooling

      over him

      a minor imperfection

      striking attributes

      which stand to condone

      shooting daggers at her

      while turning her into stone

      the time has come

      for you to

      roll up your sleeves

      willing to believe

      that you can actually

      steal him back again

      and then leave

      his languid gait

      and mesmerizing smile

      melting your insides

      as you decide

      to stay for awhile

      a playful game

      of cat and mouse

      is all that you seek

      for you will

      always remember

      how she swept him

      off his feet

      all efforts will remain

      dire and futile

      until you figure out

      a way for him to

      unregrettably lose her

      acknowledging the fact

      that you will inevitably win

      for you have committed

      the most heinous of sins

      quenching your thirst

      for smooth flesh and skin

      by stealing him back again

      the way you did back then

      PINK EYE

      grinding your fists

      into your eyes

      trying to alleviate

      a burning itch

      which won’t subside

      bleeding capillaries

      and veins

      turning the whites

      of your eyes gray

      sneezing into soft tissue

      after having coughed

      and heaved

      another prevailing issue

      too late to realize

      that damage

      has been done

      a run-down body

      ignoring the fact

      that the time has come

      administering

      various creams

      and eye drops

      promising to

      guarantee instant relief

      an incorrect diagnosis

      and an eyesore

      hindering your ability

      to see

      a glimmer of light

      and a degree

      of finesse needed

      to calm yourself down

      for you have waited

      seven days

      for bleeding red

      to plummet

      and then drown

      intently watching

      your right eye

      become clearer

      rehashing

      what it was

      that has brought

      you here

      stress becoming

      much worse

      than it was before

      a derogatory choice

      of words

      erasing every
