love me, love my mood disorder
my
dear darling precious what the fuck do you want now?
I
refuse to put an * in fuck because we all know it says
the other
word for sexual intercourse
which is
what we do sometimes
when I
am not being an arse
it’s
not you, it’s me
but when
it’s not me
it’s
definitely you
because
you really get on my tits sometimes.
Oh my
bloody valentine, whose idea was it to love and be loved in return?
It is
incredibly wearing to watch ourselves
tearing
each other apart.
Your
tears make me angrier because they remind me of my own weakness
men don’t
like to be vulnerable
I’d
have thought that you would have sussed that by now
but you
continue hunting for my soft bits
I don’t
even enjoy making up any more
My stomach
turns as
the next
argument churns.
Relationships
aren’t for everybody
That’s
why God reversed his name and invented Dog
for the
sad and lonely men
who insist
on unconditional love
like
what Mum and Dad gave
and
for the ladies there is cat
who
share their same aloof, indifferent temperament.
“No
need to get personal” you say
but everything
is and political
every
utterance is vetted for semiotic meaning
"listen
my love my soul is bleeding
stuff
your flowers, your chocolates, your jewellery, your going out
because
I’m giving in to my mood disorder
you
are not worth saving
my
head is up the spout".
I see
you six months later
Exes
now are we
I
yearn for the laughs and the sex
You look
as if you miss a bit of me
but not
all
It’s
best if we part at the fork in the road
I
leave you in your pursuit of another toad.
