Woodland Realm

I’m sure you look a lot different now 

But I imagine  

You still taste like the many  midnights 

We spent spreading our soles 

Across 

The insides of her car

Ain’t it odd how I can still feel you

Wet 

and without hesitation?

We were just lovers with no purpose 

Always ready to go 

with 

No destination 

But inside 

The places on earth that love to host 

Each other the most. 

The only place that ever 

Felt like home 

was a space 

barely 3 of my fingers could fit in 

 I can still remember 

How sticky 

We left that leather 

Covered in 

Every failure 

Every tear 

Every minute 

We we lied about 

Our love. 

You’ve been on my heart lately. 

Memories like this 

Sit quietly at the openings of my mind, 

And every backseat 

Brings me back to 

19. 

19 minutes 

Of the best passion 

We ever fabricated.
