witching hour

your eyes don't hold galaxies, they cage demons

and your touch isn't soft and gentle because your eager, calloused hands don't know any better

your kiss isn't hungry or passionate, it is curious

your voice isn't silk gliding over bare skin, but nails dragging across a chalkboard, making me listen  undividedly

bringing me to my knees

you don't look at me like i'm your world but instead like i'm your drunken mother on her sober days because your eyes hold so much hope and respect

you are not lemonade on a hot day, but the mirage in a desert because i long so deeply for you to be in front of me

i neither need you, want you nor crave you

instead i breathe you and embody you

you are not a sunday drive but a 3am trip to nowhere

and oh how i love the barren streets at that time
