He broke my heart properly...the edges fit neatly together
Across the great divide, and meet again (in rare moments)
The ache of it stretches long, and wide
Stained with sweet poisons, seeping past the days of daze
How I miss the ways he would never hurt me
His hands that said in their careful softness I was home
Safe, wanted...that I was everything
Until the day came that I simply wasn't at all
As the moment slipped out quietly in wee hours, a thief in the night
Stealing away the precious perfect heat of us
To drown far off in icy pools of forgetting
The fervor I have hunted with for the wild freedom of forget
That your wicked smiles and haunting supple skin gave generously
Crueler torture to lose paradise than to never know it
The taste of all the sweet everythings that made the world glow
Like only a lover satsfied and basking hotly in warm arms
Unravelled, the map of my world stretched ever wider
Until he was a lost isle I could not even think about
Without drowing in oceans of sunken treasure
Ever destined to be lost beneath the dark waters of time
Tho, I don't miss him as much as I miss us, the unity
Strangely it is the very motion of him I long so deeply for, the way
His hands ran electric white hot lines across my heart to my body
The intensity of the warmth that radiated across our lips
Banished to this empty place, I mourn this like death
The perfect memory of being touched
How gentle his caress as I slipped through his fingers
