Sorry excuse
I burn bridges
I watch in the rear view mirror
embers and the remnants fade away
I like closure and closed chapters
I wanted to destroy ours
So completely
That there never was a bridge
Pointless waste
you always still
Seem to find your way
back
To me
Even now I can feel you drifting
I overgrow pathways with thorns
hide the signs
switch off the lights
leave the post on the porch
let the dust settle
Still you end up at my door
Baggage in hand
spark in your lazy eye
I never leave you in the cold
God's knows I want to
You follow me to the kitchen
Where I start on the new bomb
While you build the new bridge
I aim to blow
Our cycle is consistent
Your leaving is exhausting
My heart break is on rewind
There's comfort in repetition
But where is the love
H.
