you

pseudonym 2006 (kampala)



we will not last for my feelings betray me and i am left to grieve.
you hold my garments in your hands and i shiver at the mere thought of it
our breaths exchanged ;lust mistaken euphoria
and i am left gutted in shame
you walk with your head held high while i die slowly
when i hear a whistle 'when i look through the chinks of my door
and i remember your lips that detest me
that foul taste in my mouth
that stench that possesses my memory leaving no room for recollection
you left your shirt here
i only remember your sluggish gait
your cocky tone
your loveless sentiments
i want to forget it all
why wont you let me?
