and was i ever
in love at all?
a lie is the quickest poison
i have no antidote; i have no path back to you
it took five bricks
pulled from your wall
thrown with increasing ferocity
to break your window: i have a bad habit
of not asking questions i don't want to know
i already know the answer to
honesty is just another flavour of dopamine
but not your favourite

Not so sure you need help, anna. I fully comprehended this in so few lines. But I am here to listen and offer suggestions if you feel the need to express.

Anna, we appear to share the same bad habit, one of them at least 🙄 that of "...of not asking questions i don't want to know."
The last stanza is a well worded, soul splaying observation. Brava dear poet!
