In Emotional Abyss

when i say stop
i lie awake
to feel myself cry to myself
first we say to each we love
and find a lie in between

fare that 
fare
i like that word

it makes me grizzle
even when the coffee rings awake
you with that staring at me..

oh, i’m supposed to do what then
i’ll make us a bloody mary
only for us, besides
i’m on my period

and as always
you non-relent..
and i go more 
than three doors down..

to knock again
