you never truly leave me,
you’re stuck in my sheets
and the clothes I wear
deep in my bones
entwined with my hair
lingering in my room
like ghosts of our pasts
a solemn reminder
that everything lasts

spring cleaning

AM
i moved it
into a box
under my bed
sealed with more
layers of sellotape
than my mum’s
birthday presents

it’s not exactly
spring cleaning
and i still sleep
on top of these
dusty memories
but it’s okay;

i’ve forgotten what
was in there anyway
It was only tonight
That while kissing my husband
That I remembered that I despise wet lips and kisses
I removed his saliva with the back of my hand
Whiskers rubs is what he called them
At first it was playful
Eskimo kisses
Daddy's lap
His tight jeans
Some soft lotion
A movie
But why again tonight?

Listening for night
Feeling for light, the dawn sun
Seems so far away
From this cold and lonely place
My deaf, blind heart led me to

God, make summer
Stop
Reminding me of you

Let autumn, spring, and winter do it too
I loved her in a way
that couldn’t be explained
an obsession that drove me insane
a love as beautiful as the rain
fotos and memories is all that remains
