This is ridiculous
Of me to write you these stupid
Unsent letters
In some secret place
And to contemplate sending them
(how stupid can you get?)
thinking, “hey, maybe he’ll write back.”
But you wouldn’t
Because you have this new life
Hidden in a could of pot smoke
Shrouding your New Girl
(“she looks like you,” “Hyper and Bipolar.”)
and the uncertainty over
your virginity (instinctive, “Mine.”)
because, wait, don’t go.
Just Listen.
Just hear me out, dammit!
Inhale. Hesitate. Exhale and say..
Fuck. This isn’t going right but
You know I’m sorry so I’ll stop
Saying it (cuz sorry’s cheap)
And the truth is..
I will always love you, oh,
I will always…
Never forget.
I won’t if you won’t.. actually,
I won’t even if you will so
Just don’t, okay, just don’t.
‘Cause I was your first and she won’t
be your last
and the truth is still pretty over-rated
but I’ll say it for you anyways
even if you’d rather say
goodbye.
