Description
CuriousThe scars on my heart can feel you.
They react to your presence
and have begun to break apart.
Blood slowly trickles down my chest
from wounds you and I both caused.
If I could see you, talk to you,
my wounds might close.
But perhaps,
my heart would cease to beat
or pound hard enough to make the blood
run strong and drain my arteries of life.
But I cannot know
until I see you.
I could feel you
Before I knew you were here,
but when it was confirmed,
I could not stop my eyes
from pouring out their souls.
I have tried to wash you away,
but orange paint is hard to fade.
Will I see you tonight?
I hope to,
If only to ease my curiosity.

More nice writing on a tricky subject. The whole balance of hurt and possible rekindling with an ex is a good subject to write on, and you've got that hope and pessimism in your poem. Nice work.
