Taste the disaster
Kiss me sweetheart,
Ever so gently
I feel I might break
In your arms
Tonight
I have waited too long
For this moment
And now I am all
In pieces
For you,
Darling
Isn’t it sweet?
Now just a travesty
Of a girl
Who worked so hard
To be whole
Too much fake medicine
My dear
To stomach
Your lips all
Coated in regret
And honey
They almost match mine.
Isn’t it funny?
But I won’t apologize
For the lies I spun
To keep you from drowning
The webs, were they
Unfelt
Or just
Unacknowledged?
Wait,
Don’t answer that
Not tonight.
Just kiss me again—
ever
so
gently
