Absorption.
Absorption is the way
i bumped into you one day
and we entered this
symbiotic state
of two parasites
biting
into each other's brain.

Fuse.
Merge.
Cell-binding,
love-building,
baby-building

When my membrane broke
you clung on
and took me in with you
the way i'm constantly
consuming you.

You collected the pieces
and the goo
i've left around this place
cleaned it all up
and decided to keep the mess
i'm left as
as yours.

Absorption,
absorbed by your long hair
your sweet smile
those smile lines
your broad shoulders
your wide grin
your pink bounty lips
your cold hands
gripping my chin
on a friday night
while those lips kiss me,
soft and rough,
in a car's backseat or a couch or a kitchen countertop;

it doesn't matter.
only i do,
you say,
so tell me how am i supposed to not be absorbed by you?
