Her [love-me-always] eyelashes
scrip.scrape.scratched
Nails on a chalkboard
skittering against his eyelids
Insects on a pane glass window
closed tight against the onslaught
Butterfly Kisses
He hates the way she loves him...
Her [hold-me-always] fingertips
drip.drape.dragged
Styrofoam against skin
dancing on his abdomen
Spider-steps on his stomach
tensed back to escape
Icy Raindrops
He hates the way she touches him...
Her [kiss-me-always] lips
spit.spout.spoke
Unwelcome news
lingering in his eardrums
Circadas in the night
faking sleep to ignore the chirping
Forever Whispers
He hates her voice in his head...
He'd been drinking
And his car
With his [love-me-always] girlfriend
slip.skip.skidded
A wanton bullet
slamming through oncoming traffic
A glorified coffin
He lies awake remembering
Butterfly Kisses
He hates the way she haunts him...
Because he'll always love her...
And he'll never forget...
Butterfly Kisses
And they wake him up everynight,
His cold sweat, a mockery
And a reminder
Of the rainy night he killed her,
Of raindrops, on rosy red cheeks run pale,
Red roses on a white casket
[love-me-eternally]
Butterfly Kisses

I love the format you used, it was lovely, I haven't read a poem as good as this in atleast a few weeks.
The imagery was great, you really made me feel this poem.
The ending was gorgeous, by the way you just ended it, it definitely helped out the feel by far.
Amazing darling.!
