for you, i am like pavlov’s dog

for you 

i am like pavlov's dog

i melt to a puddle 

every hint 

i get

i might be able 

to savour something 

your hand provides

even if 

it is completely 

immaterial 

ephemeral

floating above me

so angelical

i know the

dangers of a pedestal

but thinking of you 

has made my brain 

a bright 

and liveable space

when the sky is tinted grey 

for the foreseeable 

the skin of your neck is 

breathable 

and i know you find me 

loveable 

so what makes me so

leave-able

what makes your 

heart so

irretrievable 

and i know now 

it is advisable 

for me to 

keep away 

for me to be 

much less 

available 

but i can't now 

and it’s 

regrettable

for you to

break my heart is 

you know 

probably ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

inevitable
