Faster.

Driving has become dodgeball.
This blue car insistently
Flying by. Adrenaline
floods my arteries reaching 
every cell vibrating your 
energy. Quick! look is it...
I'm secretly hoping 
it might hit me
So I can just sit out 
(the rest of) this game. 
you never notice a certain model
Until you start car shopping.
Interest. Test drive. Boom! it's (you're) everywhere. 
When I run 
I pretend that it's away from you.
I go faster. It's Greek 
(so are you). Again.
paper planes on my headphones,
Louder. "All I wanna do is
Bang bang bang bang cha Ching..."
I imagine where they would 
land on your olive skin. Visualize
violence through your bones
two to your perfect face
Blood spattering on mine and I 
Keep running. Faster.
One to the chest I felt so safe 
When layed my head on.
Your holed heart now matches mine.
The last...where you exploded
Inside. Then collapsed in a heap
On my bed.
Don't misunderstand. 
I do not want you 
(to die).
I'm just dying to kill your memory. 
Especially this one:
we are lying face to face.
Hands crossed cheek to cheek
You're tasting me like a tangerine,
and teasing my bottom lip.
I peek at your greenish eyes
and you're peeking too.
I'm positive I love you. 
And you love me, too.

I never loved you

I started writing this 
In the waiting room but
It got erased like it never 
Was like we never were.
But we were. And it was.
Your chaos swirls around my
Head like that storm on Jupiter 
Folding in on itself still rotating
On an axis and revolving round
The same sun. As me but my orbit 
Thrown off a little bit longer of winter. 
I know that you'll never be back. 
Which is why I haven't washed 
This pillowcase. I haven't traveled 
To your side, but at this one specific angle I can feel your carbon dioxide 
On my neck and I can smell you
On top of me. Like you always were
Like we never were.
Oh, but we were.
We were up at 2am in this same spot
Giggling like a fifth grade sleepover
Bodies encircled and intertwined
Begging to be as close as
Our auras the mixed up molecules
Of our Karmas making A piece of 
The illusion of peace. Our reality 
Is back in that waiting room. Me.
Alone with my phone.
Writing this nothing
We were about to become. 
Sitting next to the lady
With the angry birds purse. 
Reading your daggers  these
Cuts deeper with every repetition. 
I never loved you, right?
