“i wish i had never let go”
is that what you want us to say?
“come back, i need you”
but that isn’t our way
at coups, oh, how we excel
stage one whenever we get bored
and the consequences they reap?
a luxury we will never afford
it’s always for a reason, though
or at least so we tell ourselves
because what’s another lie
to stack up on the shelves?
of course, we’re never the villains
good girls ...
