clinging to only that which we can remember
only the imprint of something too bright that has been stared at for too long
we bump fleshes
we meld corpses
the mixing of secretions
until i end up covered in yours
i am not sure you see me anymore
but it pains me little for i am not sure i see you either
like a well worn fidget, a subconscious pull of the lobe or the twirl of a piercing,
or perhaps more like your instinctual grab at the farthest recesses of your fridge upon coming home positively toasted
through liquor soaked lenses i aimlessly ***** at the past while sober me of tomorrow awakes with nothing but the echo of something within
temporally filling the void between lips and ******
the void of my gut
of my heart
but a throbbing shadow remains
