So many things to remember
and I cannot seem to keep them
all straight.

They are twisting
& turning around each other
only to disappear until
tomorrow.

Tomorrow I will remember and it will come
crashing down that I forgot.

But it will be too late.

The rain falls; I remember that.
And the sun shines, too.
And my god I can remember
your lips.

But these many things -
these other small, little, many things -
they keep me floating.

And I forget them
And I drown.

whatever I have done, I am so so sorry. whatever you are feeling, I am so so sorry. whatever is happening, I am so so sorry. whatever this is, I am so so sorry. I didn’t mean to, I didn’t mean to, I didn’t mean to.

More and More i say and More and More you know and More and More i feel More disconnected More delusional and More gone

press your foot against mine but no please dont press your hand against mine but no please dont press your leg your fingertips your side your hips your touch
no please dont

waitwaitwait

whatever I did, I am so so sorry. whatever you feel, I am so so sorry. whatever happened, I am so so sorry. whatever this is, I am so so sorry. I don’t mean, I don’t mean to, I don’t mean to.

but i always do
More and More

the shared hot breath is what makes me so crazy. the small battles of tongues are what make me so insane. in this instant in this moment i want it all back. i want it now and i want it forever. my senses are selfish. i want your hands pulling my legs over yours and i want to feel you smile as you pull away only to come right back. i want the pressure of your lips making love to my neck but so gently. i want to feel your hair slipping through my fingers. i want to brush your cheek with my fingertips and feel the sand. i want to hear the small laugh as you pull back. i want to ask are you laughing at me and to say dont laugh at me. and i want to say your name. then i want to say it again. i want to hear you laugh again and hear you say no youre just funny. it is all these things and more that make me so

(it is everything
all at once
that makes me so)

what if i want to hear you say should i not have kissed you? and what if i want to respond no thats not it. what if i kiss you again just to make sure you understand. and what if i ask okay? and your eyes look straight into mine as you nod and what if you say okay. and what if i kiss you again?

(i kissed you again)

and it makes me so

Isn't it strange how

(on those nights that I
remember to pray
before sinking into
exhaustion)

I always begin with,
Thank you Lord for this beautiful day.
?

And isn't it strange how
no matter what the weather,
or the emotions,
or the actions
of that day
it truly was
beautiful
?

I'm your best kept secret and your worst kept memory.
Darling, don't try to fool me.
All through the day you run through my bloodstream.
And when I sleep, you sneak into my dreams.
I can't wash that ****** tank top because it reeks of you.
What the hell am I supposed to do?
Every day I see you,
and every day I try to forget.
You have branded me.
Don’t try to fool me, darling.
You can’t fool me.
I’m your worst kept secret and your best kept memory.
Keep me there,
and I won’t wash that ****** tank top,
and I will keep you here.
