Delicate

kiss me as though i am fragile,
i’m aware i won’t be the first.
to taste the sweetness of your breath,
your teeth, your thirst.

tell me sweet sorrows,
of love and loss and sin.
i promise i won’t judge you,
and i’ll try to let you in.

touch me like you mean it,
make me feel less alone.
your arms around my stomach,
bones touching bones.

leave me with no goodbyes,
spewing “fuck you” before you’re gone.
and give me a reason to hate you,
with no chances of hanging on.
