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.
