Deluded
Take off your silence
And give it to me
I don't want you to feel safe
When you are making me so unhappy
Or cut off your lips
And throw them away
I don't want to see that part of you
I like so much
When we are fighting
When we are fighting this way
Cover those eyes
And your arms and your hands
And your fingertips
And your lower back
And your clavicle
And your neck
And your hips
Get dressed
Go home
Leave what's unraveled alone
What was once a dull ache
Is now explained
I am not over this
But I get that
It's now my thing
To unfold
And digest
In the night
When I should be sleeping
But wait
Give me this
Where was my slip?
When, for you
Did it not become worth it?
Get dressed
Go home
Leave what's unraveled alone
What was once a dull ache
Is now explained
Wait, give me this
Where was my slip?
When, for you, did it not become worth it?
Wait, give me this
Wait wait wait wait wait
Wait wait wait wait wait
Wait give me this
Where was my slip?
When, for you, did it not become worth it?
