for L

although you live lovers ago
you don't leave me lone 
if you're gone stay gone 
if you're gone, are you gone? 

my memory is side to side
slip like snake 
down a hole. my body remembers 
us scared to kiss cuz it's gross. 

if you're gone, are you gone? 
insisting hands at night only, secret wine 
stolen pride. yesproud of my fat where you slap 
cuz it's chrysalis 

change i am, change you, with my ears, 
got me? 
go me. for failing and [           ] failing again. 
nothing is ever over. 

every Friday we puke and buy more pens
you protest settled shit 
got me panicking like where we gonna hide 
from ourselves this time the edibles hit

buglove this smog sunset's 
wasted on you. 
you're wine in my skin
i'm wasted on you.
