1. An Open Faucet

    This unconditional love was yours.
    An open faucet of feelings turned past the left.
    And now you want to leave it on a drip…

    Like a cigarette burning with its orange glow.
    You suddenly inhaled my heart and soul.

    Gripping my mind.
    Let me fucking go.

    I’m trying to close the faucet tight,
    No matter the words, you can’t make it right.

    Gripping my mind.
    Let me fucking go.
