i never understood why
he whispered ****
but screamed
every other word.
say ****
as loud as you can
i used to say,
my hands holding
the sides of his face-
i just wanted him to be real with me
say **** as loud as you can
and then whisper every other word
until your breath runs
real thin against the palms of my hands-
I just need you
to be real with me.
