Jessie's Girl

<p>You've been his for years and I respected it. Maintained my distance.</p><p><br></p><p>Kept my silence. My secret.</p><p><br></p><p>Until that night you came to me disillusioned angry and hurt. God helps us both but I crossed my carefully drawn line before you left disappeared.</p><p><br></p><p>Now you're back and my need for you is a beast that hasn't been fed and has grown hungrier in the years since I've seen you. I remind myself we can't be more than friends that you're off-limits to me. But it doesn't stop me from secretly craving what can never be mine.</p><p><br></p><p>You.</p><p><br></p><p>My fantasy. My sin.</p><p><br></p><p>My joy. My regret.</p><p><br></p><p>My best friend's woman.</p><p><br></p><p>Jessie's girl.</p>
