The Fever has Broken

No more hot flashes

and fighting to keep cool

while it passes.

Me pretending to be something I’m not

You seeing through it,

as I continually lost the plot.

My connection to you gone,

in the flicker of an eye,

you attacked my heart dead-on.

The imaginary heat between us

ran away over the hills,

seeing the truth, nothing left to discuss.

Although I do cry, I’m relieved as well.

No more trying and failing,

as I accept that we would never jell.


Thanks for reading!
