Katie Stacey - It was

Why do I want you now <br />When I didn't want you then <br />Now the sweet relief of parting <br />Has passed <br />My mind plays games <br />Short circuiting crazily <br />Tormenting me <br />I don't want you! <br />I only want you to want me <br />Gone on my terms not yours <br />Instead my one admission <br />Of imaginary jealousy <br />Means you walk away <br />Thinking I still want you <br />And yet why does that anger me <br />Isn't that what I wanted! <br />You are not angry or sad <br />Moving on now content <br />That it wasn't you <br />But I wish I could tell you <br />That it was.<br /><br />Katie Stacey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/it-was-10/
