Arch Of The Kiss

i assembled my self into
the arch of a kiss
moving over the miles of your lips
stretching beyond what i know should be there
but never is

i write this alone in a room where air
pushes itself away from me
sick of my skin, my mouth, my teeth
tired of
it always being me
and no one else to exchange with

soon it too will leave me
and i will drown in a void that i have
carefully constructed, so
if you find me speechless one day, please
walk away, run from my house
hurriedly walk away through my backyard of amputated apple trees
and strangled childhood dreams.
do
not touch
my blue dark purpled lips

let me dream
in peace
of a broken archway of kisses
