And That's That

Now he wants to know how to fix a wrecked up heart.
I sit and ponder:
is there any advice I can offer a boy who's half broken - the same boy who once broke me?

Damn, the irony.

"Raise a glass," I should say.

Let the alcohol simmer down his stupid nerves.
Maybe I should get a bottle and pour it down his throat myself.

I don't ever wish anyone pain
but for the first time in my life, I don't care if he's unwell
I don't feel bad for him

and his glossy eyes
from the ducts that are spilling -
I don't care to help save them.

Let the tears flow.
That dumb crow!
I'm sorry but I don't have a speech to help him

and that's that.

How Deep Is Your Love?

I wouldn’t recommend your love if it were the only thing left in this world. I’d tell whoever was interested in you to hurry and spit you out like dirty spinach because I know you’d only kill him inside in the long run– slowly and surely.

The Loser.

"I destroyed everything, Mama.
I destroyed everything!
You make one wrong turn,
and then
because of that,
after it
all the turns are wrong.
And you are so far from where you wanted to be.
And you're lost.
And then you're lost."

Guido Contini in the movie Nine.
