Design the question to
Alleviate a cellphone twitch.
Distinguishing a text
From an email.
And I’ll never bother her
Again. Of course I lie,
In operation of survival.
To make it hurt less.
Swallowing pride
And it tastes like cracked glass.
Reflection fractured,
Compensation
For when I’m acting up.
Darling.
Darling.
Darling.
Repetition creates comfort,
But we never settled-in
To relax? Fuck.
We wanted to climb mountains,
When the challenge included us…
I fell from off the edge
And positioned suicide as innocence lost.
