I thought I needed
you, for me to be happy
turns out I only
needed you to be happy —
no matter where that leaves me

notice how that thing between
your legs listen when
my tongue writes long letters and
my lips does all the talking

knees write treaties on the floor —
of my surrender

lost — yet again — like
the only thing I succeed
in is in failing

you, who asked me if
I already brushed my teeth —
I said I'd prove it
when you come closer and taste
the mint from my very tongue

you, who keep singing
a song after leaving the
room — coming back and
picking up where you left off —
like you never even left
