You know
now that I've resigned myself to the closing down of this
I thought I'd have to shut it down
this weak and frail connection

but it grows stronger
and your smile spreads broader
and your knees are weaker
and my eyes reach deeper
now that I have resigned myself
to the death of this

amazing how much
you wanted me today
and in the same breath
you talked of him
you called for me
amazing that I had the strength
to talk of other women
and the beds in which I've slept
and that crestfallen look on your face
that hurt that bled across your words
and slowly crept
upon your trembling lip,
that,
well that just felt
like fucking
you
