there’s something lovely about the way three am calls your name how my therapist knows your game and all those words you played but i sway, i speak your name — i don’t know afraid lean back and relax as i bask in the thought of killing an ex they say i might be insane, but it’s not because i laugh at pain or the way i say your name in utter disdain i can play the game, i can reign i can drink your blood and bathe in your veins they say it’s all in vain how i kick back and relax in the thought of how many i’ve slain i’m not insane, they’re all just mundane it’s not my fault i like to kiss and then whisk their brain i laugh — if only one day i forgot the cause of my distraught possibly then i’d live without a cause, the hovering bomb would be lost all the ghosts i’ve caused would no longer taunt and haunt maybe then i could sit on a yacht, rot my skin and bleach my brain kiss a shark and bask in the day when the words they spoke never caused pain but that’s all a hypothesis and maybe i just like the dominance the way they scream my name how prominent their bones become when i squeeze their waist the way their eyes taste when they die especially that tough guy that started to cry but then i awake and realize it was all just a dream and the way they screamed through their teeth was just a theme you might know my name, but you don’t know my flame and you certainly don’t know my game the day i truly awake
