i can taste you sometimes,
during slow evenings when
time stretched over us like a
dense sleeping bag;
i can feel you then.
all your worries hovering,
like fruit flies.
that’s when everything in me
wants to hold you, and slap you
at the same time;
god. i don’t even know if i love you,
just that i’m supposed to.
it works that way,
and i lie here in this corner
confused, confused, confused until
the corners bump into my soul
and squeeze into my laugh.
i draw scars where your smile
burns on me.

this has a poetic essence, it is not just a rant it's also a poem which shows the vitality of lovelikefrustration. i can tell how that feels like.
