The Garden
You gotta go back, gotta go back
To the Garden, that’s where we found it,
Remember, lover, when we first met?
But then I slouch against the pillows
And shout ’Why is it so dark in here!?’
Then I realize I’m here alone.
Forgetting to eat, so much happened
On no sleep in twenty-four hours,
But still I check my phone by its light.
Though it was me, old habits die hard;
I find myself yearning for your call,
So I hear the voice that made me laff.
Then suddenly, it starts to return.
Passion, it seemingly never ends.
Does it mean yesterday was a dream?
On this I’ll meditate unless I
Choose tonight to overmedicate;
I better come to my senses quick.
Have I had a fucking change of heart?
I thought we’d already talked it out
Who’s not to blame, I surrender dear.
I shouldn’t be feeling any pain,
But something is sticking in my craw;
It was what you had said day before.
We cudd’led on this exact wet spot.
The distance began to separate
With I wanna date other women.
I choked, ‘Their platonic company?’
No, to fuck with and ejaculate -
I just wanted you to know the score.
Even after when I said ‘How kind’,
I imagined your head on the floor
In a pool of your blood inches deep.
I’m a good girl, and especially
I’m a generous lover, and more,
‘So you mean I don’t give you enough’.
Your dead silence was thick as a plank.
Now after two days I’m feeling it??
The paintball gun you left me last year,
I just realized a use for it;
You were such a romantic biotch.
I apologize dear, it was YOU!
