You strip away my words. I cannot untie these ropes and ease myself or else I risk missing a fraction, or even the turn of your head that seizes me, there is a pressure in the air my breath cannot hold. I don’t like the feeling you exhale into me with your soft kisses. You leave me feeling as if I were watching the drowning glow of the opulent sun into the ocean at sunset. The anticipated satisfaction moulded from beams of beautiful energy, in the very same moment possesses its leaving- its drained, quick and heartless removal out of my system. I’m left with nothing but to weaken in the stare of your vacant eyes, I am frozen with the need to hold on to the warmth of the past moments, so conscious with each choked swallow. My hope burns a hole through my chest. I can’t bring myself to define how it feels being with you, and somehow simultaneously rubbing up against the broken skin of my pounding wound. The pangs of pain sting familiarly as my tears overflow from my eyes, this relief might as well be real. I cannot breathe. I cannot leave. I cannot stay.
