It would have been new
to you (you'd never ask a thing)
your eyes wide in shock

Not for me, but for a world that
still could do it to you
honey
like I did. Like I still would

because you were my only
and I loved your shining love for me
all those sliced off little bits of me
in all your little boxes

My fractions hid behind the mask of my face.

They flashed blades behind my eyes
and choked my throat like a laugh
like smoke and metal and the come
on my thighs when we didn't play safe.
Was it enough for you?

I think you were looking for an excuse.
Sugar,
I think you wanted something to believe in.
my dear, I think you wanted something dead.
