day 25: pareidolia

Stop showing up in my furniture//

I can see your face in my carpet

In my wall

The shampoo bottle at the store.

The patterned paper seems to mock me, looking at me with sad sad faces

And happy when I leave

Were you happy when I left?

You said I love you first.

Liar I can see the lie in my carpet

No in your granite counter

Or in the unread messages from me

But the opened snap of every girl

I know

I close my eyes and beg my brain to stop making me see your lips in my chai latte.

I just want to drink something that doesn't lie when it spills
