Had abandoned myself
to perish
inside the moments
that carried
the desires
not granted.
Every step I had encouraged
was a step back
from what I really
wanted.
And did you fit in
the movie
I made for us?
Did you kiss
when you meant to?
Did you love
when you least expected to?
I lived through the standards
of the road
of an every-day routine.
Everything at first
fills in a
pleasure-like steam.
Did you like me
when you said you did?
Were you satisfied
from your special needs?
I can only detach
from everything I know...
And change into
some other kind of skin....
I do kiss
when I mean to...
I do love
when I least expect to...
Had fun in pasting
the pieces of me....
and are you as happy
as you're pretending to be?
