It happened without warning
I saw her standing there
I couldn’t help myself
I knew that I still cared.
Our paths crossed … perhaps by chance
Was it fate or a coincidence?
We parted ways… some years ago
Think we met today…. by accident.
She said , “HELLO” so casually
Like the spider to the fly
As always, oh so charming
Her eyes… blue as the sky’s.
She put her arms around me
How could I resist?
Softly whispered in my ear
I’ve missed the way you kiss.
Why don’t you come home with me?
She wanted to have sex
It’s been so long, I’ve missed you
Thought that I would just say, yes!
No way that I would follow her
Like I did before
Never again …. would I give in
Not ever, not anymore.
Persuasion has its limits
I’d been down the rabbit hole
Been there… done that…. no not today
No chance that I would fold.
Handed me her business card
Told me to call her later
I knew that she had no idea
I’d spent years …. wanting to hate her.
A psychopath, a narcissist
She hadn’t changed a bit
Some people learn from past mistakes.
Some want no part of it.
