Wish
Gabriel Duncan

I almost thought it would work
but I'm in the same sad dance
sorry and angry for ever taking the chance
I guess I can't complain
but romance is hard to maintain
when there's something wrong
with the chemicals in my brain
stuck mopin, and chokin back the tears
shouldn't sweat it anyway
he was from pluto, I know
he never meant to stay here
the most insatiable frustating effacement
was admitting I got myself into what I shouldn't
but I still do
and I shouldn't be so dependent
they say I'm too blue
but fuck that
I'm blue all the time
blue walk, blue talk, blue rhyme, blue stalk
I wish it were because of you
I wish I had someone to blame
but the more time I spend
writing crying rhymes upon my bed
the more I wish you'd vacate head
so here's another wish
