Make Up to Break Up

Sometimes intimacy isn’t reconciliation — it’s delay.
— J. Elahi

We break up

to make up

after we just broke up.

I hold her.

All she does is cry and cum

becomes undone

while I stroke her.

It’s not the sex.

It’s the release of pain.

She says,

I love you so much.

Then I come back

and stay.

We’d sleep days away,

stay up late.

That’s when the problems disappear

and all the cheer in your heart fades.

Because I’m leaving today.

We just made back up

to start back at one.

It’s over.
