He said, "I'm so mad I could spit."
I said, "Spit."
He groaned, "I'm so mad I could scream."
I laughed, "Scream."
He rolled his eyes. "It's not that easy, you know. You can't just scream and make the bad things go away."
I cried.
Why can't the
bad things
go away?

You know,

It's funny
how you called me honey
then called me bitter.

It's funny
how you called me yours
then stopped calling altogether.

Maybe I was bitter,
but I was definitely better
than anyone you're calling
tonight.

I'm glad you won't be calling tonight.

When I was sweet you were sour.
When I was wrong you were happy.
When I was up you were down.
And when I was letting go,
you came begging for a shot to come back around.

I'm glad you never came back around.
