icebluenothingChampagne glasses left untouched in the sink
Fading stain still as pink as kisses
There are chemical traces of you left in my system
Do you mind, I wonder, that I use you like a drug?
Moments with you I can hold crystalline in my hand
Like little bright pills just for emergencies
And I swallow the sound of your voice whole
Drowning out for a while my own on its fever-static feedback loop
Serotonin lullabies in my heart's chambers that echo and echo
Hours and days and still you remain
A sudden shock or certain pain and everything comes clear again
In mirror-sharp afterimage flashback
The curve of your smile
Or the way your eyes look when you say
My name
Fading stain still as pink as kisses
There are chemical traces of you left in my system
Do you mind, I wonder, that I use you like a drug?
Moments with you I can hold crystalline in my hand
Like little bright pills just for emergencies
And I swallow the sound of your voice whole
Drowning out for a while my own on its fever-static feedback loop
Serotonin lullabies in my heart's chambers that echo and echo
Hours and days and still you remain
A sudden shock or certain pain and everything comes clear again
In mirror-sharp afterimage flashback
The curve of your smile
Or the way your eyes look when you say
My name
