The skin recalls what the mind shuts out
To taste, to shudder â I let you in.
To beg, to tremble, to fear for love â
- Your tongue taught me so many things.
Sweet to sweetness â could I recall
What was tender, and what was best?
A dream, a vision. The rot crept in â
Those final phrases eclipsed the rest.
{A bridge/a password/an anchor for insubstantial fantasy â nothing more}
The failure of your tongue spears me through.
A bruise, a thumbprint â the mark endures,
Thought to muscle, lips to skin.
A call to memory cannot mask
A sickly smell where the rot crept in.
An open archway, the bars brought down â
No thought to struggle, no will to run.
Softness conquered what strength found strong â
Too late, too sudden â the hurt was done.
The skin recalls what the mind shuts out
And echo alters what's been and gone.
A gaping hole where your lips met mine and
Empty jaws where our love had hung.
Bitter relics â the mark endures â
Sweet to sweetness â stroke to stroke â
My body trembles â the skin recalls â
My tongue remembers the words you spoke.
