Two-bit undercover
indecisive lover-
I can’t wait for you to
make up your mind.
You have pilfered proof &
you have tampered with the truth.
You put everything we
had on the line.
You cut out my love to watch it bleed –
it won’t heal & I don’t think you’ve thought this through.
Twice now you’ve apologized
for compromising
my position –
you told everyone my disguise.
But you’ve been undercover
so long you don't recall
all the master plans
you had to revise.
You unplug my love to watch it die –
I won’t try to get you to revive me now.
You fucked up my love so much that I don’t
recognize it save for all the scars from all the
times before you tried to
shove it in a box and
bury it somewhere
that no one could find,
but I’ve come back from six feet
underground to blow your cover…
