My worst nightmare
comes to life when the
man I can't allow into
my heart asks me to
dinner and suggests
pizza, knowing it's my
favorite food, knowing
I can't resist, but I
should, I should resist,
even though he assures
me this is just a dinner
date and nothing more,
his gentle eyes the blue
of a clear summer sky,
while I visualize a soft
rice flour crust piled
high with black olives,
spinach leaves, green
peppers, mushrooms,
and vegan cheese, while
I wonder if going out
with him just for tonight,
just for pizza, just, just,
just this once might not
be such a bad decision
after all, or is it?
