By The Way

By the way

I forgot to say

I love the sight

Of you devouring porkchops

I love to stare at your feet

And your crooked teeth

I love your sarcastic laugh

And that crease on your face

By the way

I forgot to say

Don’t look at me the way you do

I start to melt away

Everytime you turn your back

A part of me

With you is stuck

And by the way

I regret to say

My heart sinks

every time you walk away

and when you are around

I fasten myself to the ground

scared to be displaced again

by your electrifying presence
