I try to forget your name,
But I keep seeing it in lightning
And I hear it in the rain.
I tried to scream
like thunder,
crying for you to stay,
But the words
fall out my mouth
like leaves,
And the wind
only blows them away.

My mouth was drenched
in the foul odours
Of past lover's kisses.
And when I kissed her,
I tasted them with shame
