Bleach. Shaken, not stirred.
You dragged me to the edges of myself,
got high off the pure bliss
of gutting me.
From the inside out.
..
hours of dry heaving
tells me there's nothing left
of my insides.
You've thoroughly cleaned me out.
Yet. I still feel it.
..
The ghost of you
leaving behind traces of an unwanted
war. between us.
..
I stare at my stained clothes
at the bleach sitting beside them.
And my entire being leans towards it.
To be clean once more.
