Eat Your Damn Cake

It's that
same
stupid
shit.

I love you!
I want you!
I need you!

Oh baby,
oh baby.

Again,
again,
and
again.

What the fuck
do I do
with someone as
oblivious
as you?
It would be so much
easier
it's true
if I didn't love
you too.

Tears so hot
burning white
like that acidic flame
that I once
prayed
would consume me
Frustration
so maddening
I don't know what
to say.

Too much,
but too little,
just jump on her ass
and ride
I've seen you
stare
you didn't even have
the grace
to deny it.

When you looked at
me
your eyes were
unfocused
When you look at
her
your eyes hold strong
intent.
I guess I can blame
myself
After all,
I did feed her
to you
and holy crap,
did you feed.

You seem so
eager
to be gone and done
so be it
you can have your way
for once
But you wanted it
that way.

Only now do you
complain
about all that
fucked-up
bromance
male bonding made you
jealous
but tender kisses with
her
stirred little
envy or
worry
how quickly you
forget
how favorable
the tender flesh is
to me.

So now I've had
just about
it
Now I'll take
any excuse
just to be rid of
you
and all the pain
loving you
has gotten me.

Like you even know
me
let me spare you
the pain of sight
of truth
of love
me.

I'm far too
crazy
for you to handle
I knew at the start
but
did I do
anything?
No
of course not
it was always
"power of love"
"love conquers all"
and all that
bullshit
I ate it all up
like the sugar-coated
lies
that they were.

And now that I'm
completely
sick with it
I'm giving up your
protection
in arms and
eyes
the pathway to the soul
my ass
the only thing
your eyes led to
was tears.

Have your
damn cake
and eat it
too.
