I have officially decided I do not believe in you – 03/14

I have officially decided I do not believe in you
You’re free, now, to not believe in me too
Breathe you out, you disappear
Just like everyone else who used to be here

Global conspiracy: Delete For Me
We still come undone: Delete For Everyone

I burnt all your photos
Or I didn’t
No one has photos anymore
What for
This, just gone
Mostly
There’s still some reminders
When I want to see
I don’t want to see

You left me to drown after begging me in
Send someone to save me, I’m drowning again
Sinking ever deeper when I promised I would swim –
I’ve never met a boundary that truly meant anything

You invited me home and left me soon after
Nights are now harder
Than the strap I took you with
Bent over the lounge
Two wet fingers on your clit
These aren’t the things I miss

Reclined on the floor with you sat above me;
Taking wrong turns, your hand to distract me;
Kiss you in a carpark, a stranger stares in; 
Coffee before the hotel, the skirt you’re wearing; 
Lying by the lake, sleep in my arms, I’m awake;
When your arm brushed mine in the bookshop… I died;
The stream… into me you leaned,
‘Better Together,’ you showed me, as my heart stopped beating;
I just want to feel you, your hand, your wrist, your skin
