my intimates

i can feel you
scavenging over me,
inside me;
but my vision blurred

"don't take what doesn't belong to you
if it wants you too, it will come"

don't pour lilies on me
or breath fire
don't expect for me to flower
or deflower

but you're now unfolding me
t-shirt inside out
to hide the used version of me
and unravel the new and vulnerable,

leaving coils in my throat
but I swallow them back in

"you finish with this sack,
as long as the harvests remains the same"

"Devote the body", it says
it cannot hurt more,
the unsafer it is on the outside
reaffirms your black and golds true.

My intimates stay still.

you can't get closer than the inside
of the devoted body and precious calls

So cling to me,
lip to lip,
eyelashes touching
being blinded by kalopsia

but the difference remains the same:

you're scared to lose my presence,
im scared of losing myself if I confide
