pretty accessories


no i don’t think you’re particularly
pretty but at least you’re new
your novelty tides over your beauty
so for now you’ll do

and how do i tell you that i’m not in love
with you i’m just lonely
that love and desire must be expressed the same
is already such a tragedy

and i certainly hope you don’t love me
or some such thing that’s deep
treat me like an accessory maybe that
you’ll get bored of so i can leave
