40 Pieces - Daniel P. Quinn
Husband & Wife
I heard about your dreams, about your ambitions.
They taught me to wonder, to be intrigued and listen.
We were best friends...
Please know I really cared at one point.
In the place we went, your parent’s basement.
Kissed, but upstairs we made love.
Fucked for the first time.
12 steps above.
Now we need 12 steps to save us and our love,
We didn't like it, so we left it.
Couldn't learn and now regret it.

I thought I could change you.
Made you fall in love with a stranger.
Addicted to lust and danger.

Even when they forgot to notice.
You gave your opinion.
Made it shown.
My flaws, the ones wrapped around you.
Inherent and new.
In time we learned to hate.
Each other; our fate.
Lost, burned by fire.
Smothered flame, all desire.
Guarantee we'll drink ourselves to death.
