Pigeons

Days go by and roses fade, songs play, birds die eating rice at weddings
Just kidding, pigeons don’t explode in the face of true love
Just us, we die a little, 
We are the ones unloved, unbound, unkind 

You
The man who loves committing
And me 
Committed to be

It will get better 
One day I wake up
I am better

Not

After you left they pulled me open and tried to make me let them in
Like you he tried to take my pain away 
But all he did was a reminder of what you did.

how
We had 

words and empty promises and 

Another pushed me on the bed ripped off my clothes lifted my legs and tried to have me
I laughed, no

I stopped
Whiskey 

I know it was the distance that messed us up, but 

Sober
I still can’t stand us
Perfumed sake
Things going to shit before they even started
What if we disappeared 
We did

We finally did.
