From dawn's early wake
to dusk's late yawn
you have me up
I am friend to your palms
constantly engulfed in her warm hugs
I work for you
I am tapped
I am swiped
my brain, you congest with your cravings
my memory fills as you thirst
you call this relationship love
but then,
the pain comes because you forget
forget to remember
and remember to forget again
that I need shut eyes
a dizzy you will rest
slave on me as soon as you heal
a dizzy me knows no rest
I gasp for air
you plug in the oxygen
and suffocate me still
you call this relationship love
and with eyes fixated at me
you crossed over to the other side
you did not look left
and then right, and left again
you took one step after the next
and now we both can rest
I, to work later
you, in peace.
