Combustable

The feel of your cold skin still lingers across my body

Weaving itself in and out of goosebumps that arise

 

The moment I hear your bitter name

 

I've been looping "I love you's" for hours now, occasionally intercanging "love" with "hate" and "hate" with "miss"

I miss your soft brown eyes

But I hate how hard they've been lately

 

The most exotic lunacy is revealed when you discover that most things are pyrophoric in nature

You, the most combustable of them all

You, the cigarette i dropped

Out the window of my first car

 

Me, the dry grass
