we walked by the haunted house
and made out on the front porch
people say we fell in love at first sight that evening,
but i couldn’t see until the morning
and that beautiful birthmark that covered half of your body
i ran my fingers across it
like some kind of seamstress
and you threw my legs over your shoulders
and bit my fingers and i couldn’t stop looking at your birthmark,
it looked like a scar
and i asked you to drive me to walgreens
something about a plan,
what we were going to be
but we got lost and tangled
and my kitten bit our ankles in the kitchen
where i made you black coffee and i rubbed my eyes
too much, too much, i broke a blood vessel
honestly way too much
i was scared of the bruises on my thighs
and i thought i wouldn’t see you again
“i’ll never see him again”
so i drove to walgreens
and the girl at the counter judged me,
and i bought a donut
you're some kind of cinderella boy
leaving a broken cigarette under my mattress
your birthmark left a stain on my eyelids and my hands
and i forgot to ask your name
