April

by kitten
he's so beautiful
April pays to fuck me
Over
Every single year.
She does not let me forget
That no one is really worth any of it.
I read the horror stories
My father wrote,
In a dark closet somewhere north of the ocean.
I am the one that must always be lied to
Under the sky the sun never leaves
At the very edge of the continent.
And because of this
One morning in April
I got so high
That when I came down I died.
I was stoned
To death.
And I will do it all over again.
April is leaving my bed
Yes she wants me to come with her.
