Between 13th and 23 you took off your wedding ring
For a stolen mattress fling
Dress yourself in camouflage
To circumvent self-sabotage
And insulate yourself
Where feelings flee, history repeats
And vows don’t mean anything
So flip your hair back and say cheese
Kids will you please avert your eyes
As we dismantle your shrine
chewed out from the inside
Mistaking pure adrenaline for being alive
We’re all fucked
And we like to fuck around
With other spouses in this town
So Gag Yourself
And pray the rain won’t come
Fuck your pictures
Fuck your hashtags
Fuck your Sunday’s best and who you’re trying to impress
Fuck your stupid cat
Fuck the log in my eye
Fuck your pretend-a-fucking-settled life
Between the present and the past,
There are new prints under your dress
And secrets you protect
(Still living in regret), you can’t undo
And can’t forget,
The bridge is burning at both ends
