A College Girl's Lament
my ovaries exploded like pop rocks
in your mouth the first time i came.
you put on your shirt and walked out the door
and thats how it was from then on.
late night rendezvous
i swear my roommate hated you for them.
and you absolutely knew it.
you'd come over whenever you needed
and in those moments i'd be everything you needed.
you had me trembling under your fingertips
begging "please, let me come" --
i was under your mercy.
you never seemed more in control of your life
than when your life was spinning out of control.
and now youre dead
and its my fault because
i loved you.
i love you
and its my fault because
i never told you.
youre dead because of me
youre dead because of we,
youre dead because
you and me were never a we.
youre dead and i swear
my roommate cried twice as hard as i did.
goodbye love,
im sorry i couldnt be everything you needed.
