I washed my mouth with soap so I could no longer taste your name
My tongue limp, your kisses spilled out one by one
Filling the sink.
I replaced my perfume with vinegar so my nose forgot your smell
And bathed in the fireplace to burn your touch from my skin.
I blinked
And your face flashed behind my eyes, a halo of white light
So I shut the blinds and shattered the lamp.
I took the broken glass to shred my ears, deaf to your voice.
Red dripped from my knuckles
Crescent moon divots deep in my palm.
I cannot recall the fingers that once lay there, softly.
