you are the definition of oblivion

to my growing infatuation with your eyes

even though they mirror mine

yours hold a light

a flame that burns me

so i always break our gaze

it reflects in my tight-lipped smile

that's the only reason they ever say i'm glowing while wrapped in your arms

your arms, that fit around me and settle for bruised hipbones

but they only ache in your absence

when my chest feels hollow as my heart echoes in my ears

until i become so numb to these thoughts

because they all revolve around you

i yearn for white noise to win this time

take away from nostalgia's nightly appearance on my windowsill

make me a stranger to this not so strange sadness again

until i forget what a close companion loneliness has become

once i said you were a reminder of coffee beans

and you laughed at the only poetry i wrote for you

but my coffee is preferably bitter

rarely sweet

which describes your relationship with me

which answers to our physical altercations

which explains fucking everything i can ever feel for you.
