Staying away

The hardest part is staying away

I’ve accepted this

reality’s hard

I’ve unclasped my fingers, 

So you’re free to go

When you find her

Hold hands

Sip champagne

and forget our filthy, noisy past

forget the fights

forget the words 

the abuse

the hate

our filthy, blackened past

Will you whisper secrets to her?

tender, gentle secrets

soft and fragile

spill your soul against her spine

hold her hand

close your eyes

forget our filthy fucking past

forget the fights

forget the words

the abuse

the hate

let go of me now

unclasp your hands

untangle your fingers

remove my limbs from yours

the hardest part is staying away

but baby, she’ll save the day
