i'm bleeding from my mouth
for you
every broken apology
full of plasma
as it drips past my lips
and into the floor
in front of you
collecting in a pathetic
red pile
of thin liquid

and i can't believe
what a fool i've been
to let you fly
without a permit
and to let myself
fall back in love
with everyone else
and to confess
my love to you
in the bathroom of a diner
at one am
on a tuesday night

and i hate weirding you out
i do
but i love you
