all my tears this weekend were spilled
over you.
friday. you. saturday. you. sunday. you.
for that time, a fire ignited inside of
me.
oh, it was so short though.
for soon i was numb
the tears made streaks upon my *****
face. and i was numb.
numb to you. numb to the pain.
numb to the world.
i wanted you out
i wanted you in
i wanted to scream
i wanted to sleep
but, ****.
i saw you.
and my insides crumbled.
the angry words vanished like
dandelion wishes.
once clenched fists turned into
itching fingers.
when i kissed you, it was as if i had been dehydrated
and you were my delicious glorious water.
i brushed your cheek, wishing my fingerprints
were visible.
your scent made me tingle
from the inside out.
my tears were no more.
i couldn't even remember anything.
you looked at me.
that's all it took.

i sighed and grasped your hand
and as you pressed your lips
to my palm
i knew i was doomed
