come here

be there

fit inside this box of beauty

i am not an animal you throw into the ring
i do not fight petty drama
i do not see my heart as caged

you want me to be there

i want to be here

he just wanted to use me
as if i was a light you could turn off
as if i was a river you could divert

i never wanted to be anywhere than with you

but i wanted to be anywhere but here

and you took my face in your hands

i might have caught a glimmer of the universe
in your eyes just that once
but it all went dark when you kissed me close

i think i am having a conflict of interest
because of you
because of him
