I imagine you out there
on a crowded street,
drunk, and looking for
any way to rid of my memory
from your mind, your heart,
your worn out skin.
But let me tell you, baby,
that no one wants to be
the thing that temporarily
fills the void in your chest.
And even if that beautiful boy
was able to whisper promises
of healing in your ear,
he will have already forgotten
your name, and what it is
that he came over for,
by the morning.
