In Love With A Lunatic
by Stacy Lynn Mar
I am a hypocrite in my
Tiny white feet.

The way I tell him
To fuck off,
Then run back into his arms.

We are clockwork,
A sick cycle of
Never again,
And ever after.

How I rub his back,
How he kisses me.

The way we wind
Into each other
They way the moon
Winds it’s opulent hues
Onto the hillside of
This black night.

We are a crazy
Concoction,
Of forever pushing,
And desperately pulling…
Clothes, words, lies, blame.

Robbing each other daily
Of what yesterday
Was given in free.
Loving without proper reason,
Loving because it’s natural.

I am a phenomenal lady,
In love with a lunatic
In messy brown hair
And a smile that melts
They dark side
Of the harsh words he says.

Tonight I rip him from
Within me,
We are a mangled mess
Of cruel words
And pitchfork-sharp goodbyes.

Come morning,
We’ll side back inside
Each other.
Like thieves,
Like two silly entertainers
In a swanky magician sideshow.
