Your touch has been etched into my skin
Oh how terrible to be reminded of your fingers
feathering over my body
My dreams remember you
in every night, good and bad
your coffee infused breath still lingers in my nose
your sleepy sighs reside in the deepest parts of my brain
Oh so heavy the burden of memory
left with nothing but a shadow
a mere whisper, a phantom of what used to be
The sting of remembrance
sweet and addictive, ravishing with fire and lust
while my hands cling onto emptiness
while my eyes get lost in distance
I let myself fall into the illusion of comfort
closeness
a bitter reminder you’re no longer with me
a lonely mark of my own failing
Your eyes have set my soul on fire
I watch your hands and my breath hitches
Lord have mercy over this mindless fantasy
this useless memory I keep repeating
I keep replaying in my head
The road now open for anyone to take
crossing over bridges
The both of us seem to have burned already
