We’ll Always Have June or Writing Is Something I Use To do
i useta love
you
i think
i know you
made me feel
things that made me
try to claw
through 4 decades of skin
crack already cracked bone
pull that heart grenade
from my chest
and squeeze
until the dripping stopped
or exploded one
funny how a pen is always involved
but was that love?
or was it
just me
wearing a mask
pretending
that feeling good
was what would come
when the beatings
stopped?
either way
when it’s quiet
i remember you fondly
almost having moments in which
i miss you
but don’t expect a letter

Raw. Wonderful. Need more grenades like this one.
Agreed with Bernie.
And that last line.
Damnnnn. My favorite part may be “try to claw/through 4 decades of skin…”
