Tandaan

I remember when
He made my stomach ache in that hungry sort of way.
I remember when
He looked at me. Straight through me.
Hot knife with ease. Can’t breathe.
I wouldn’t flinch when he reached out
And held me by the small of my back.
I would rest my head in the crook of his neck.
Breathing him in. I remember when.
He made me feel reckless.
Daring deeds of debauchery.
Reckless me. Wreck me.
I remember me.
