they said we were a habit like coke or cigarettes
beautiful for a moment
then ugly in a minute
hooked on severity, eat speed in the park
you convinced me you were psychic
this is how love should never start with
such small wrists that we shared the same bracelet
dependence never felt so decadent
I hate you don’t leave me :(
fawning over wounds
itd be pretty if our bodies matched
we both agreed
that’s when you first said you loved me
so we slept on the bench
as we worried our friends
laughing at all of them
because we loved that kind of attention
wilting in the bath as we made the water red
swallowing everything around us then
families crying and trying to take that bracelet off
someone must have prayed
someone must have pried
and we both cried as we were taken away
you’re a psychic you knew it would end this way
the promise that you broke
you shoulda came back we had a pact
remember that?
