He's Back...

Questions racing

Heart pounding

Mind spinning

Breath quickening

Phone vibrating

Another text from HIM...

the one I gave my heart to...

the one I broke my walls for...

the one I let do things

I was too afraid to let another do.

The one who lied

The one who cheated

The one who used me

for something he could have had from another.

Why now?

Why?

When I need to think about

the one I'm with now...

Why?

Why when I'm already confused...

already scared...

already upset...

Why now

when I'm just starting to have doubts?

Why???

Funny how that works.

The wound has been reopened,

the stitched ripped out by one word,

one text,

one name.

Will he mend

that which he has broken?

Will he hurt

that which he has already killed?

Will he love

a girl he once endured?

Will he finish

what he started before?

But before any of those can be ansered,

I must answer this:

Will I let him?
