As I read my book you cross my mind... Causing the words to blur as the story becomes insignificant. And soon I'm left lost in the pages... Unable to focus on anything but you.

Rearview
I can see you fading away
in my rearview mirror...
With dead leaves
and empty dreams
swirling at your feet.
No End
Sometimes it seems as if the past is still present. I can see that everything is over... But it feels like nothing has ended.
That time…
There's one moment in my mind of one lasting encounter... As I remember that time I sat on your counter...
Swept
Sometimes I feel like an undertow has swept me up. Forcibly suffocating, pulling, and dragging me so much farther out than I thought I'd ever be able to go...
Rewind
Five minutes pass
and a hundred moments
run through my mind.
And when I try to hit fast-forward...
I click the damn rewind.
Shower
Why do I leave the shower
looking so puffy and red?
It’s because all I did
was just stand there…
Replaying all the things
I wish I had said.
Unraveled
Like a loose thread
on your favorite sweater
you unraveled me.
Nonchalantly picking,
pulling, and tugging at me...
Until I was left nothing
but a tangled mess.
Shivers
Whenever I go to somewhere we have been... I get shivers from the memories that stir from within...
Craving
Your rough exterior was so
sharp and sour to me.
Intense and unforgiving.
But as I let you sit on my tongue…
Slowly you melted away into
something so suddenly sweet.
Leaving me with a hunger
and only wanting more.
