i keep finding myself sitting on
overpasses - not somewhere to belong,
just somewhere to be. i like the neon buzz
from taillights and constant “is” to “was”
of traffic. i can see it when my eyes aren’t busy
behind a frizzy
shock of bangs, trying not
to catch attention but hoping an awful lot
that someone’ll pay
it anyway
‘cause i’m still thinking about
those girls without
the alcohol. which isn’t how
it happened, but i’ll allow
some lapses in memory
if it means i’m free
to keep blaming myself.
talking about it’d sure
be nice, but they liked that we were
secret, and
