Incomplete Poem

My incomplete poems
Are full
Of your leftovers

One of them carries the shawl
You forgot on my chair last time

The other one has cake crumbs
From your birthday
Scattered all over
Between lines

One of them keeps drinking
From the half empty glass
With your lip prints on them

Another one has washed itself
With your scented soap
Over and over again

One of them has stains
Of your red nail paint
Smeared on every line

Few of them are entangled
In your hair brush

Many of them are suffocating
In your dark brown suitcase

Yet many more
Are always with me
Digging their nails into my body
Everywhere
You kissed me
Touched me
And
Made love to…

They break me down
Into small sugar cubes of your lips
And turn each part of me
Into an unfinished kiss

In love
I have become

Your incomplete poem
