You used to say my eyes were beautiful right before splitting me open, groin to gullet. *(Do you still think I’m pretty, baby? Don’t you wanna tell me how sober I look? Don’t you miss my mouth?)* Eyes wide shut, I watched April disappear in a blur of bite-sized catatonia. *(Tell me how good I feel. Don’t you miss my blood on your sheets? Pin my arms back, baby, just for old time’s sake.)* The last time I saw you, you avoided my gaze. I was lucid for that much. (Oh, I know you can’t help yourself, baby.) Tell me again how beautiful my eyes are, love. We both know how much I like it rough.
