i lick your chin
to feel the stubble
of your ache on my heart
where i knew we were born
in a moment
on a street
with hands twined
through fingers i couldn’t grip
and i touch your lips
to feel a pulse of mine
atop yours
a stone cold feeling
of dark
chasing a spine
of a man who was never there
and always so far
i venture through valleys
to feign in the pain
of your eyes in a dim lit kitchen
feeling for what was
and at twenty-seven you hadn’t
yet wine spills and oasis still exist
our legs move forward with time racing
your eyes bend with time
wounds tend to heal in rotation
we’re turning tables
twisting in pretentious movements
i ache your name
to feel your pain
i felt your life at the tip of your fingers
a lost electricity
moving through veins to make vain
we still exist in a world which is far from here
in holograms i twirl in your kitchen at night
it’s all parallel like our lives in this time
in this life

I’m not really here. I am physically, but metaphorically I am not. I just exist sometimes. Occasionally I’m present, but majority of times I’m not. I stand. I hold in place. Periodically I sit. Sometimes you see my eyes drifting. I’m not wondering. I’m wandering. I’m seeking. I’m observing. I’m listening to the wind. I’m grasping the moment. I’m grasping time. I’m feeling this. I’m trying to understand what this is. I’m not here nor there, but elsewhere in between the hologram.

I was pacing in your kitchen. Thinking of ways I’d miss you. How the summer brings light. The night brings dark. Our minds intertwining and becoming nothing but just you and I in a moment with nothing else.
People need truth and the truth is, I didn’t need you. I wanted you. You wanted me, I assume. This is why we worked. We didn’t need each other. We didn’t fill a void in each other. We flowed in time and when our time expired, it was over. You were floating, I was flowing. I was searching and in a bittersweet reality, I was going. Experiences mean more than what we give them. I love and I lose and it’s never a loss because experiences don’t bring losses, they give strength. We learn, we love, and we move on. -

I trade truth for life. Honesty for dignity. Darkness for light. But I wouldn’t trade your eyes at night for anything.
