Eve Messervy 

Dear friend, you found me once again.

You feel like an embrace

A heavy coating on my being, you taste 

So familiar 

I wrap my arms around you dear friend,

You burn and flicker everything in my very essence

You linger, and find me, you know me 

Oh you know me so well

The contours of my neck,

Every cell 

And my eyes, you always loved my eyes 

Where we’d meet every time;

Where I’d plead you leave me be

Lose me.

You had me swimming through glue 

Oh dear friend,

If you love me, become a stranger,

A beloved stranger.

Paint for me, fill my pages, lace me into you

Let us bleed. 

And that’s when you smirked at me,

Wiped my cheeks,

“They only go hand in hand my dear”

Until we meet again.
