"Fresh start" that bright lie ignites a hungry fire you came to me disguised in a mask that had me convinced now that I see it the old questions die and resentment with them this is here staring me dead in the eye there's a brutality a dishonesty about you a wound dressed with salt a false honesty I feel your hand around my neck and your electric toothbrush on my clit as I almost cum but drop off and give up born is a new desire not to repeat a familiar mistake
