You are a part of me

my framework, my skeleton

I can fell you slip from me

my own fault

like a blanket slips from my fingertips 

as I drift unconscious

I have far too many memories of you.

Multiplying, replayed inside my very DNA.

a virus

I can still taste your lips, heavy with smoke

Dancing across my skin like sugar on speakers

telling me secrets I'm not sure I want to know.
