i love you but
you're too insecure
too manic depressive, too dull.
your makeup clogs the pores on your face
and you're ugly you're ugly you're ugly. (don't you know?)
raccoon-eyed and puckered lips
won't make me return your passion.
your nails dig into my skin, drawing half-moons of blood
this way you'll _never_{_forget} _{_{_me}}- more sickening simpers.
(now).
forget what Daddy dearest said
give up before you even try 'cause honestly-
it's ~~fucking~~ annoying.
i'm sorry.

i'm not sorry
i missed the train that morning
in the second, my line of vision was you.
and you're beautiful you're beautiful you're beautiful. (don't you know?)
now you wake up every day
looking like a churlish spotlight star; no comb necessary.
you throw childish tantrums
when things don't go the right way.
(your way).
eyes burning hateful holes through me
fingers that touch me oh-so-gently.
kohl runs down your cheeks as you hurl
curses, splinters beneath my skin -
but i love you.
