Photograph

A photograph sent over the internet. The face that he wants peers out at me. Her smile saying I am his chosen one, the winner, his view of perfection. I see the eyes that he stares longingly into, the lips that he kisses, the body that he presses to his, and the hands that he holds. I look for the spark – what it is that has possessed him. I want to erase the image from my mind, but it has invaded my dreams, bound together with my dreams of him.

If you're really listening,
If you're awake to the poignant beauty of the world,
Your heart breaks regularly.
In fact, your heart is made to break,
It's purpose is to burst open again and again,
So that you can hold evermore
wonder
- Andrew Harvey

Also, delete that photo.

That is a lovely thought, although quite painful in reality. Also - you know me to well...I itch to look at it all the time. Deleting it is the only option.
