To be honest, it’s all becoming lies. The words that once held me captive. The arms I once knew, like ghosts.
You once criticized him for what you’re doing now.
My love is only for the weak. My love only feeds disease. If all I am is a vessel to carry out some wicked deed, don’t fuck me in front of me. I could burn the body you love.
If the truth is too bitter to swallow, then I concede I am a liar by default. But you know, you know it all too well. I’m no good for anything else. I play pretend as if it’s the only game.

He drinks and I drive. He lives and I survive. Not broken, nor torn, simply displaced, misplaced perhaps. He moves forward and my mind is a cinema reel. I don’t understand why he says one thing and does another. I don’t understand.
Anyway, the mom just came back and I can see their little heads bobbing about. It’s neat.
