COCAINE HEART ━━ poetry

girls against gods

you loved like religion,
so when you cried wolf
he said, grow up, i’ll see you at midnight
his white lies run you over
  day
    after
      fucking
        day
                    like a white mustang
tears like white wine stain
and you always ask yourself, why am i staying?

he’s the heavy metal that you wear,
the heavy metal that you hear
and the heavy metal that you smoke

it’s always been girls against gods
and gods against ghosts
but this time the girl who cried wolf
had been right,
but she is the sheep too
