monthly dues

guess we know now
all that never was
it's better this way
i know
what does it matter anyhow
it was barely an idea
kinda like life itself
kinda


it wasn't meant to be afterall
right
at least we found out now sooner than later
before all of our things got tangled up
intertwined
don't need to separate books or dishes
no need to sort out what belongs to whom
they were always in it's proper place anyway
just visiting
just visiting


so leave now
i'll sweep up the wet
mop up the sweet nothings
wring it out
run it down the drain
and pay the rent

and where your head once laid, i will squeeze
and where your body once was, i will hold on tight to this duvet
and i will watch it all fade away
