doing the things new lovers do
as stones railed against the windows
I looked furtively out corner of the glass
as she screeched I see you you bastard!
erm things are gonna get complicated I muttered
just stay low
just go see what the mad bitch wants
she said
while I put on a coat & smile
closing the door behind me
so’s she could not slip by
what do you want? I asked all low
I fucking hate you she cried
grabbing my arms to shake me
I slipped aside her hands her punches
this is over has been for some time
why now? why tonight?
as she sat on the road
collapsed into sobs
this this is what you’ve reduced me to
I know your new bitch is upstairs
were you fucking her?
did I get in the way?
look there she is! fuck you!
fuck you! fuck you!
shit she’d decided to take a peek
there in the window outlined light behind her
I’ve got to go & so do you I said
I’ll kill myself! I’ll do it just you see!
& there is no sadness compares to those words
I didn’t want her to do that
nobody does
but knew it was out of my hands
& the reasons for us being over
were only compounded by this latest drama
go home I said get some sleep
I’ll talk to you tomorrow
fuck you I’ll be dead! she cried loud
as I walked
backed away
this was a drama in which
I did not want to see
the third act
