    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.

    At the door; blocked our exit.

    Let it go, forgot to protect it.

    Invested, in the make-believe.

    And all we see; is all we've ever known.

    Together, but now alone...

    King. Queen, of dirt and thrown.

    We mixed, but never matched.

    Never executed on the plan we hatched.

    Our paradise was a pair of dice.

    Dedicated and premeditated.

    We gambled with our lives.

    All in and ass out.

    Closed minds and close mouths.

    I thought I could change you.

    Made you fall in love with a stranger.

    Addicted to lust and danger.

    But we were scared.

    Forgot to prepare.

    Full of hope. Controlled by anger.

    Let it go and live our lives.

    I remember when we were husband and wife.

    The Host

    You always found a new way to hurt me.

    A certain name or spit in the face.

    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.
