-
the tears are quiet
behind locked doors
-
to tell you about a boy
who couldn't make up his mind.
-
-
There's some rule
in some book
-
if someone'd told you yesterday
how hard it was going to be
-
I found a note yesterday
wedged between the stop sign

I lost my virginity in London
to summer heat and blond hair,

He wasn't wearing it that evening,
or any tie at all, for that matter.

the words you're muttering
under your breath
-
I think of you when
I have been feeling lonely;
-
because it's your
life, your everyday
-
you must be very
addictive
-
Sometimes the blanks spaces
start to grate at your thoughts
-
I would spend all my savings
on gas and hotel rooms
-
she has very little left
that is hers alone
-
I think of you
and my eyes bleed shut
-
sometimes you are there
with me in the car singing
-
I have tried,
I tried so hard
-
sometimes, the button gets stuck
-
When she was eleven
her older sister died.
-
I think that you might've needed him
a bit more than I,

The world looms before me
Blurred and uninviting.
-
When it fades it would only be a memory
that you don’t acknowledge.

(XI) He was hurrying to meet one of his dreams
(XII) and you though maybe you could fix him.

It is only in the quiet
of hours spent lying wistfully
-
And he has never spoken but we all know his name.
-
I commented that we were wasting away,
Becoming spinsters with twelve cats
-
I am standing now
shakily
-
Could you toss my voice in the rubbage bin?
I would like to never speak again.
-
-
You always say you like me better this way,
Asleep in the back of your chevrolet.
-
But the flowers are all brown
and dead.
-
She screams and rages
From the front of the room.
-
I want to look in a mirror
And see the wall through me.
