All those nights you sutured your skin to mine.
Less partner and more possession, come back to me now.
Sick flashes from drunken fights, I can barely remember.
But know that I lost.
You always knew where you were going.
Which action to take next to benefit yourself.
I always knew how to let the wind blow me.
Haphazardly ending up where I thought I should be.
If you knew this was how things would end up, you didn't show it.
And if you knew you would break me you pretended not to know it.
"If I can't have you then, I don't want you.
In fact, no one wants you for more than the sperm receptacle
you harbor between your legs."
Every time I tried to draw the line, you moved it with words and angles.
To where you thought it should go.
Usually running down the middle of my convictions.
No is the strongest two letter word.
And remembering how to say it is the hardest part.
