"Hologram"

#poetry #romance

By New York In Fiction By Vince GoodmanPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Hey there beautiful face

Pleased to meet you

My emotions

Need some rearrangement

I almost got killed

By the attraction

The tension got me uncomfortable

And I tried to say goodbye

Over a million times

But the kindness of your heart

Overshadowed everything

I killed every soul

Of our conversation

Thinking that I've won the war

But you kept coming back to me

Like a vampire

That refuses to die

You will live

For centuries to come

An echo from my childhood

Also came back to me

Where I made a sketch

Of the face

Of the person that

I'm supposed to love

I've drawn the eyes

The nose, the lips

Of all the faces

I tried to love

None of them matched my sketch

Then I found you

And you matched perfectly

This is not love at first sight

I love you all along!
