you came & left at a speed that could have won the Indy 500
your wheels spinning so fast it left me dizzy
the rhythm of your engine urging me to keep up
i never quite could
we kept our words guarded but our bodies vulnerable
every inhale & exhale of breath
every touch
was a conversation we were too afraid to have
our bodies built walls
they still remain
i know
it has been 9 months since we last kissed
but i understand you now more than ever
your wheels were made to keep turning
burning rubber like you burn bridges
