the blood in me loves you and other sweet nothings i can make real simply by speaking them, lover
with your head in my lap my hands in your long hair and the night fraying at the edges around us
giving way to dawn for the second time what a treat to watch it become light once again with you
and other sappy ****, too because that’s what i’m good at putting more poetry and romance into whatever it is we have
whatever it is we had than there ever could have been
and sometime it feels like all that’s left between us is an empty bottle of *** two ***** shot glasses and the shaking of my hands the aching of my teeth
and what an ending that is, lover
what an ending this is giving back the time i had tried to borrow for us
