Elexis Johnson
She came into my life
Like a spark from a lighter
Quick, and brights
Hard to ignore
Things Between us
Happening to fast
The connection
The closeness
The way her lies
slipped out
Before she had time
To cover them
She was too much
Too fast
Too fake
The kind of intensity
That was dangerous
That wasn't fate
All at the same time
I tried to leave
But things were in the way
It wasn't gentle
Some things arrive
Shaking you awake
To show you what it feels like
To feel alone
For a moment
You won't forget
Maybe it was trying to say something
Maybe it was meant
To change me
Either way
It did.
