i want to scream, darlin
because you & me set the stars
on fire, stumbling in the darkness
of the day when the clouds drown
out everything that's left. --
(just you & me, darling. i think i
stole the stars from your eyes when
we kissed and set them free --
& so you left me...) with her name
on your lips & her scent on your skin
you told me you still loved me.
(& i would laugh if this didn't hurt,
honey i would laugh if the stars could
stop burning me where you can't see them)
& i can't be convinced that
there's nothing different
in your eyes
because now i know
they're not for me.
