haunted

His mouth was fresh-

but when his lips were misaligned to mine-
i knew he was closing his eyes to another.
And i pressed him harder to the frame of the door
and forced him back to me-
for only those minutes.
And she may be younger
or a flavor all her own-
but even these thousand miles
wont bless him with the goodbye promised
and he will spend eternity

haunted by my voice.
