Aspirin

Replacements and metaphors

I haven't tasted aspirin in two months

Or your lips in three

Yet i swear there is a pill stuck in the back of my throat

That i cannot swallow

Or dissolve in any amount of liquid 

That i pour down my throat

In the same way that whoever I kiss

It is still your lips that i can feel

Tracing my jaw line

And your warm breath against my neck

that haunts me days later

and whoever sleeps in this bed

will always wear your sleepy smile

that i caress with my hands

and gaze at with closed eyes
