Written to Matthieu,
Loving
The pain of a doubt .
Seeking.
Perhaps, perhaps, seeking.
Healing
A futureless
Sentimental Wound
Meeting you again
In your words.
Isn’t that just
In real life
Role-playing?
Feeling
In lulls
Your long absences
That’s not a lie
Not getting
If we should take
What’s left to us
What we’re testing.
Remembering
For a few minutes…
Whether we were lovers
I watch you wither.
Thinking
About giving you back
What you thought
You discovered
Seeking, seeking,
Seeking.
Where desire
Has gone
I could tell you
That the past
Must have engraved
What happened
But giving up
Repelling
This memory
Everything is nighttime…
Writing
To know
That darkness
Is hard to drain!
