Snarling cynicism
Surrounded by rings of smoke.
Martinis drunk in gulps,
Swallowed to push it down.
Wit, vodka, Camels, chocolate,
Movies, nail polish, sexts.
Free-falling expectations--
The death of my hope
Came slow and painful.
The cold made comfortable
By the warmth of familiarity.
Swimming in misery,
Arms crossed over my chest,
You found me.
Just another girl,
Just another boy.
Spark!
Lamplight and lust
Evolved into love.
