I Still Love You Like I Did

‍

It was never kill people, burn shit, fuck school

but it became a prophecy. We grew up too quick. It became repel money,

eat shit, fuck off too quick.

‍

Little girl like paradigm,

Twist the finger like parasite,

Girls in espadrilles,

Heart hands, self-harm scar pussy for

peace of mind. It

gets so exhausting

lying all the time.

‍

Squeeze into the keyhole, do not resuscitate,

like Terri Schiavo

for the voyeur. It

gets so exhausting

just being alive.

‍

For fear I slept through the best part

and the thought of love.

‍

I tied your hands behind your back, entered you

and through every hole,

I thought of the one sidedness.
