Eyelashes batter my salt stained skin, lips on the back of my neck, remind me of a time when we laughed together when our bodies begged to be bound together- and all there was were your eyes- your sullen, brown eyes. Your arms entwined with mine, your filthy flesh presses against my unclean thoughts. Your arms, asking me to stay, my body turns away telling you to leave, wanting to keep myself and not share it with you as I have shared everything else. Reminiscent sentiments burn through- like your eyes as they burn holes in the back of my neck, exposing the question that you ask- it’s in the answer that you crave. With the worries that I gave you, they told the worst of me. It was hard for you to admit you were wrong, with the jealous indiscretions that have now all but faded into the background. Silence, seeking sounds, demands that this is worth only what it once was. It’s times like these where silence means everything. Awake through motion with curiosity to curtain your first move |

I liked it. Its the way relationships go in one way or another. Eventual disgust with each other. For me anyways. lol -GIS He has made everything beautiful in its own time. -Ecclesiastes 3:11 |
