it took months to figure you out

beyond the rain and after the drought

I felt my pocket empty

in it when I reached

nothing but remains of your cliches

always took what you could

things I could not replace

you inhaled my space

drank my health

sank your teeth

sucked my wealth

these days i stumble upon you

by memory

i fight back

resisting charm

slow fast heartbeats

and i turn around
