30 day free trial
he asked me why
every time i said “i love you”
the words sounded so much
like a resignation of fate
in my throat
why they fell to the ground
as lead bullets through my teeth
i tried to explain the ticking time
bomb my affections become
explain how the love i’ve known
detonates and runs for cover at the
mere suggestion there is an attack
i am scared of telling you i love you
because
love has never been kind to me
and i want to be kind to you
