Not understanding this
anything about this
any of it
I'm beginning to hate you
for everything
for nothing
for the nothing that is everything

and you--
representing something I idealized
memorized
as something I didn't know
something I only felt briefly
but carried with me
like a sigh
rolling out of me
constantly
draining me
but I will wait
all I can do
wait to hear
wait to see
wait to bleed
