Memories

I can't listen to so many songs now
because every time I do
I think of my crimson
blushing cheeks
against yours
and how I get flashbacks
between each verse
of our locked lips
and tangled bodies
under soft bed sheets
I can't take it
it's gotten to the point where
as the first few notes of the song begin
so do the memories
the memories churn my empty stomach
and I suddenly see your face
in every strum of the guitar
and my heartbeat pounds
like the rhythmic
drumming your favorite song
and god
take away this pain I feel
because I'm still in love with you
