Analysis of for Edythe



beautiful girl,
with a soul damaged like her heart,
where our first conversation was with explicit words
and naughty intentions,
you text me at 3 am
and I find myself more drawn to you than a ocean to a breeze,
I’m aware you want nothing more than for me to go away
although to piss you off I think I’m going to stay
you make me lose my mind
but how can I leave you alone when conversations with you are so unnecessarily divine?
beautiful girl,
who shines more than she realizes
I’ll keep you close
even though your soul painfully isn’t meant to be with mine
