bad spanish, relationships

by Wednesday, May 5th, 2010.

deseo una cosa mala, una persona mala,

a boy that thought romance was in post-its and brutal honesty

he said he loved me and went back to math homework

and his hair was ugly and still, he was in my head.

and now he can’t answer better

no quiero ver tu nombre. no quiero ver su hermano.

no podemos ser amigos.

grammar correct? manners appropriately rude?

who should i ask?

he asks me if mañana is tomorrow

i hope you don’t mean that

i do

no puedo hablar con ti

sick to my stomach

cut, sticky fingers,

another collage-estoy nervioso

i wanted to end it in that corner

but it keeps rolling through my stomach

like my wide eyed giggles tonight

No up front conflict, just you and me

and google translator.

One day, one day, I will know how to make coherent sentences

in spanish, in arabic, in hebrew and farsi

And I will write you a letter. I broke my heart when I broke yours

But I never fucking cried, and I gave you six tears.
