It's all about desire. The want & pull of a lover that you let go. That's where he feels me. I left him but he feels me. He sucks slowly on your bottom lip & hides his regret behind his molar. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The math doesn't add up & your fairytale has been written. He is an average man. An average build, & an average smile, & an average lover. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It's all about desire. The want & pull of a lover that will never let you go. I taste salt, & he misses the sting. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ His soft hair litters your pillow & the bottom of a bag in the back of my trunk. He is still with me, you see. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The blood won't come out. It’s still in the alley. It’s still in his veins. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It's all about desire. He has mine, & he is waiting for me to call him home.
