after a gig we all went to savs’
for an ‘after party’
and once again you were your
plastered self.
i only had one beer and was
sober as can be
but that didn’t stop me from
asking you about
little ol’ she.
i tried my hardest to act
like i didn’t care but
deep down it pricked
my skin.
to say you were pissed
couldn’t fully define how you felt
for when your hand collided
with my face
i then knew it was down hill
from there.
i could feel my cheek start
to swell while my eyes blurred
from the tears.
you cupped my cheeks and
mumbled, “shit brooklyn”
and i forcefully pulled away.
you did the same thing to her
and forgot again,
that my name was keagan.
