Last 3 letters of the spring

Tell nothing

Just sit with me in silence

Do nothing

Just let me feel your mess

It caught me off guard

with my hair undone

In my bleached underwear

Before I washed my face 

In my dark play-act bathroom

In my empty play-act home

Look away

remember me crumble

say I am making myself cry

Blame me for my loneliness

and rest your head on my belly 

In the last moment, close your eyes

then shut the door in my face 

and when you go

I beg you—stay gone!

say 

You don’t remember

If anyone’s asking

say:

she was cold-hearted February

When I was August

say you were freezing 

When I was burning

say you’re better off alone
