absolute

you always kiss my in betweens,

and it's like you are rubbing salt

in sore cuts or

you are always trying to prove to me

that i'm just thinking too much.

we play cat and mouse when we are bored

because the chase is better than

sitting alone,

but being alone doesn't mean

i'm lonely -

if only you knew what that

entailed,

the taste of simple silence

drowning out everything that

couldn't be

or

the fact that space can

heal more than just cuts.

 

i guess i value my well being

more than i do about

the little things

that hold

nothing

absolute.
