cédric
fuck it
once you asked me to move
yeah
i Googled you and
FUCK YOU
i don't know if i'd get used to your face enough
so STOP YOUR FUCKING LIES
to yourself
and the reason i said "i'm so very sorry" those two times
FUCK YOU
were not about pretending to be so caring i could destroy you later
it was that i'm in love with someone
--you said you didn't quite understand "besotted" and needed me to explain--
--and the way i looked at you, yes
it reminds me of the way i looked at him--
but, cédric
i was scared that if you misunderstood
you'd start threatening and switching things around on me
like
chris
i was so happy you were halfway around the world
but then i was so happy you asked me to be a poet in real life again
i didn't mind meeting
--and then you asked why i'd commit hara kiri, and i got scared again--
--thinking you wouldn't understand "oh, it's just a way of expressing embarrassment at having to explain what besotted means"--
so i said "i'm so very sorry"
again....
chris thought i was being mean when i asked, "what's your venmo? i'll pay for your beard's funeral," and
we ended that night
and i accidentally hurt him too
i was blinded by tears and switching between him and my friend dan
screaming about how his cock looks just like my serial abuser's--who raped and abused me, and beat me, and even almost killed me just because he wanted to run up the hill to the football field with me over his shoulder one night--
almost snapped my neck--
only the colors are different--
and was texting him instead of dan just being heartbroken
and said something i shouldn't have
i'll never forget hurting him
and, cédric
when i asked him to shave his beard
you know it was that i was scared that i'd see my dad with him on top of me
but he didn't know, of course
so, fuck, cédrìc
i was HAPPY that you wouldn't find out
that i can't let another man touch me--
--and when you helped me accept that dee had coerced me into the blowjobs
there's something you'll never know
--something--
about chris
and my mouth
i loved you so much until you decided
i loved you
like
that
I AM ME
I CHOOSE
I CHOSE TWO YEARS AGO
and you...i would have tried, if you had wanted me to
but...MY CHOICE IS CELIBACY
the reason i didn't want to give head to dee so immediately, maybe never
is
I CHOSE TWO YEARS AGO
nobody was supposed to hurt my body
and take chris away from me
i was so, so, so good...
...i didn't write this as a scathing essay and post it to your fucking boss's site
and all your YouTube poems
oh, the FURY
i had to bite it back
(thank chris for that. he's the No Revenge OG
and i am a mere guru)
