I have never heard the words
I am sorry 
From a lover 
Except when accompanied by a goodbye 
The pairing is vinous 
The dry drink pucker of lips stuck 
For the second of a bitten upper lip 
Eyes to a shoelace tasting blood curdled hard
The arrangement of fighting 
For or against propositional 
Like an empath and a narcissist 
Imbibing the insecurity blushing the ego 
Pain-drenched for the sponge-lover 
Paralysis of give and take 
One taking on the emotions of the one who
will not give 
One using the other as a toy to receive 
Insatiable adulation for dark crevice
validation plaque 
Like a siren or a scorpion or crab queen 
Teeth, stingers, and pinchers 
Absolving the clench of the profoundly wounded
the boy is drawn 
Quartered insatiable hunger for one to eat
away the pain 
Toxic muscle tissue regenerative to the bone
like ghost-meat 
Zombie-love undead growing stronger 
Stout connection teeth-into skull of the
controlled 
Marionette emotional lantern illuminating the
country-side staircases 
Until the mermaids dive into father-mirrors
and slashed-wrist drips 
I hope that whole denial thing works out
