Drunk Valentine


Dont open this gift!
I told you, didn’t I?
to not read between the lines,
to just take a bite,

It was a simple thing, it was no labyrinth,
your gift wasn’t at the center or end,
what I showed you,
this, this was my gift,
for whatever it was worth.

I told you,
not to pick it apart,
to see what’s inside, it was all the same in-out , love crust love center,

i knew you were dying,
dying to know,
silly child that you were,
to know,
what it all meant,
This strange gift,
That i told you not to unwrap,

But you were doing it,
picking this poem up,
pick picking like a bird,
pick picking away
