If i ran into you today

I don’t think i would know

What to do with myself

The thought of even seeing you

Makes my palms itch

And my knees shake

Even when we were together

You always made me feel

Like a dog with its tail

Between its legs

Frightened, but in a way

You can feed off of

Now that you’ve left me

Outside in the roaring rain

My whole body has matted together

As i’ve spent hundreds of days

Waiting for you to open

Up the back door

Yet i know if you did

You wouldnt dry me off

You would scold me

For being so naïve

To think you would never

Kick me when i’m down

If i ran into you today

I don’tbthink i would know

What to do with myself

I think if you held out your fist

To shove me away once more

I would sigh in relief

Because you would finally be

Connected with me

One last time
