love is just memory
playing a sensation
over and over again
until all it is to you
is just a simulation:
candle flames passed by your soles,
a cold wind blowing between your knees,
ocean waves battering what lies between your hips,
your guts the Richat Boutonniere,
your chest heavier than lead,
your head light:
and all that you eat tastes like unbuttered bread,
all that you hear sounds like Lou Reed,
all that you watch is old Italian films,
all that you breathe smells like coffee:
love is just the way
you're forced to put your words
like you wish you were with her.
