Devil,

It's been so long
I feel as if I should
Greet you formally

Should I start with,

Hello, it's nice to
see you again.

Or

Fuck you, goodbye.

Either way Devil,
I'm not yours anymore

--------------------------------------------

Sad circumstance
Yet the same message

At 0210 it was another boy
One whom I love
And cherish more
Than I ever did you

He's been around longer than you
Creating a stable home
Inside my intermittent heart

He's the one
I wished to hold
Not out of sorrow
But out of love

The one whom
I cried when alas
I could not feel him

I've never felt something as deep
As I have of his love for me

So Devil,
I think it's time to say goodbye

It's almost been a year
Of writing about a ghost
And I think nows the end

I won't torment my soul
Nor my heart and mind
With the poison
Of your lies

"Fuck you, goodbye."
