i like it when
i force the wet out of your burning eyes
i like it when
your soul breaks at the sleight of my hand
i like it when
your smile fades away from your beautiful face
i like it when
you throw yourself at me so desperately
i like it when
you miss me like i miss feeling you
beneath my fingers
underneath my weight
behind the curtain
coughing up love
bleeding out care
and screaming with happiness
i like it when
we play hide and seek
and when i leave
you never know where to find me
maybe i'm at the bar
maybe i'm making you jealous
maybe i'm making love
maybe i'm delusional
maybe i'm irrational
maybe i'm weird
maybe i'm scary
or maybe this is what you call love
