when we waited,
ours is an agreement
that’s breaking hurt,
like a reverse bear trap,
or an opened mind
by the stroke of midnight,
but I was there when you
said you didn’t know
yet you came and saw angry
words every minute, or
as much as the bad was before
whenever these attentions
were not the focused day,
can I document this hell
of my own misunderstandings
that I bleedingly need to
deal with, just get
really fucking ready
