He sees you like a block of ice on my heart

Sapping my warmth and love, stealing it from him

He might not wait for you to melt away

You drip down me as a river, swollen and heavy

the dirt of the flood clogging and aching.

When you are very drunk.


The best idea at this time involves a sandwich, and going to bed

But we talk about relationships instead.

Laying breathless with stars for eyes

Panting and clutching and expecting sunrise

Wearing this brand new ring

A queen to a brand new, ecstatic king

They’ve both said yes and retired here

Into a costly hotel whispering in the others ear

Today is old, and new, and borrowed too.

when you scream “I HATE YOU”

I hear something more like “I LOVE YOU BUT CAN’T ADMIT IT”

and that’s why I smile.

Not because I’m a dick.

You take that back.
