In the Cards
Can I borrow your passionate soul one more time?

I promise if I feel your claws sinking into my wings

I will let us fly, if only you promise me in return-

Could you spare me one final moment of peace

Before we go back to pretending we never each other at all?

I’m not asking your cruel heart for forgiveness

And I won’t give you any more of myself

Than you have already taken and suckled from

Until you’d sucked it all dry and I ran away

Into the arms of a man who makes me moan with his kisses

I know you that hurts you, but I bet you didn’t even know.

No, I will not give you any more of myself

But you already are myself because in a way,

You could’ve been my soulmate, twin flame

That matched my every stride perfectly,

The soy butter to my jelly. So I’m sorry

For getting so nutty on you. I’m sorry

You couldn’t be sweet enough to mask the poison.

I’m sorry it all came undone, sorriest of all

That it doesn’t seem to be over yet.
