I’ve drifted around
collecting the pieces
in late night drives and
drunken sprawls
with strangers
filling the void
with meaningless mess
scraping
the bottom of my heart
for any remaining sweetness, I come up
empty
I gave it all away, hoping you’d return
my love
Instead my well ran dry and
you left
when you were full
Heart throbbing
Hands shaking
Sweat seeping from my pores
Heavy breaths blow past my neck
Sweeping me away to other worlds
Steady hands healing my wounds
Falling deeper with each brush on my skin
Determined stare grabbing at my hips
Deeper eyes would drown me
Let me twirl in the heat between us
For I would give it all
Be sure
There is far to go
The Gap
