Pho


Kisses that taste of pho and vanilla

On the good days

Whiskey and cinnamon on the bad

The scent of sweat mixed with weed mixed with vanilla

On the good

Not close enough to know on the bad

A touch soft, a breath in my ear, a kiss on my neck

If things are good

But when they aren’t

Ice

Cold

Stone

A glare into nothingness, stabs right to the gut

Left breathless

On every good

And on the bad
