I learned my lesson
Too typical to call it a blessing
Wiped your tears out of your bathroom sink
Mistaken, clearly missed the discrepancies
I have been held up in a sweet flippant fantasy
Touch me, squeeze me, pretend that you need me
A fixture, a perfect picture
Twisted into a shallow codependency
Hand me my bag
Give me my shoes
Is that my watch on the dresser?
I’ll grab that too
Broken heels hitting the pavement
Among lost strangers
Singing the Love Street Blues…
love this poem
