you know how we liked to drink wine and eat
chicken tikka and doritos in bed
all day? how we liked to get kicked out of English countryside pubs
or get preached at on the Paris metro?
i still do.
i will love you forever.
you have this film on your bones, it's soft
and calming and makes me feel safe, incased.
you have a finger in my windpipe, a picture of yourself
in my cranium. i have heart palpitations hiding
under pavement slabs and sit on them
trying to hide that i will love you forever.
you are allergic to wheat and breasts.
you are allergic to my lips and hoarding big secrets
on your laptop computer. you are allergic
to dairy products and losing
your best friend.
i have months of you to analyse.
i will love you forever.
remember how
we uploaded videos to youtube
i sat on your thighs and looked in your eyes
with an ophthalmoscope to see if your vessels
were in love with me too?
i shoved my hand into your chest
and held on as tight as i could. screaming;
i will love you forever.
