Description hey you, it has been a while
since you pushed your face against my chest
and told it things like
i don't love you anymore.

it's been a long while since you thrusted up
towards somebody else and opened your heart
towards him.

it's been a long while since i told you
something new, something you knew, something
so obvious, you could have held me, you could have
kissed my nipple and clinged to my ribs
you could have climbed into my clavicles
and sat there forever, all foetal like.

you could have been safe.

You crave the comfort of knowing their love and having near you their best qualities. Too bad their worst qualities out-weigh what you can live with.

Two years later and I feel the same way. Adore your writings.

You probably always will... but over time it fades.

This is really good. I like that the imagery is at odds with the feeling of this poem (or at least that's the way it reads to me).

I do have a question, though. In the second line of the first stanza, did you mean "against"? I wasn't sure if that was an intentional or unintentional misspelling.

I really liked this!
