marry me, she
said, she’s a car crash in your head and then it’s midnight again
and the bottle’s all that’s left because she loves you more than
anybody does do you know who she thinks about kissing that other guy?
and whose name she screams when the neighbours wonder why? did you
like her? did you say goodbye? can you see her and all those tears
she cries when she thinks you aren’t looking? any idea when she’ll
stop stalking you? the letters and the calls in the
middle-of-the-night, one day you’re afraid she’ll show up with a
knife and then where will you be? tied naked to a tree, and all you
can think is baby won’t you please just die?
