I let love drift by

Like previews to a movie

I never really meant to see

Do you see me

Now?

You proclaim to be

The one that always could

But never really did.

I hide my colors

Like a rainbow begging drought

But I figured you out

In all the time it takes

To bake a shitty cake.

You taste like regret

But the aftertaste always seems

To leave me wanton.
