my memories
are a jagged
edge of everything
i ever wanted

to admit what
we had was
love is to
throw away
the very
feeling

the sound of
your gaze is
deafening as it
trails my skin

have i ever
told you how
your eyes
remind me of
rolling
thunderclouds?

these scars
on my wrist
match your
fingerprints

plum red
bruises
have
never
felt so
loving

and denial
is an
unavoidable
tryst

your rosewater
truths roll
off your tongue
and leave
bone-deep
impressions

hold my
hand my darling
and don’t
let me go

we will be
miserable
together
until there
is nothing
left
