I
fast became
like
the trees were
the
day after
our
first date
bound
up in crystal frost
you
picked me up
in
the storm
so
desperate
the
both of us
God
bless the internet
don't
even remember
the
exact circumstances
that's
the way
past
circumstances go
when
you're living
an
underwater life
but
I needed out of
my
circumstance
and
you were willing
over
willing
overweight
gay
boys are so shallow
and
tortured
self
tortured
bred
for the auto loathe
when
you feel like shit
they
gotta feel like maggots
faggots
oh
I can smell
low
self esteem
like
my own b o
revolting
and
comforting
like
intoxication
all
I had to do
was
be skinny
and
grin
and bear it
and
make you forget your head
with
my head
and
you couldn't believe it
I
can be unbelievable
when
I'm in need of
rescue
and
you really couldn't shake
that
doubt
not
for our entire year
so
I'd pour on the outrage
pour
another vodka rocks
because
the overweight one
was
the lightweight one
and
pray on my knees
pray
wetly
tearful
pleading
open
throated
that
you might believe me
might
keep me rescued
keep
me
I'm
not like the others
I see
past the outside
like
I was some prize
until
prize became prisoner
I
froze over
like
those trees when we met
entombed
not
floating at all
but
surrounded by water
high
on my stink
in
the same old circumstance
unsure
where tree ended
and
ice began
