delights of pain


I thought you were dead

I thought you were long gone

But the familiar chocking sensation came back

And I am heaving, my chest is too tight,

As tight as he was holding me last night

And I don’t know whether it’s the ghost of his touch,

Or pain,

But I am heaving, and tears are starting to roll off my eyes

My blood-injected eyes, and I don’t know either whether it’s the tears or the weed,

But I am absent

Am I losing my mind, or did I just leave it in his sheets last night?
