Break
and break
and break my heart in two.

Because what you do to me, I will do to you too.

We play these little games:
Who will get hurt first?
I know I’ll get you back, and that you’ll get me back worse.

A wry
little
smile
hides a sigh
on my lips

While your hands are on her, mine
clench
my hips.

But I’ll get you back too.
It’s what we always do.
Again, I’ll step out of your queue

because your turn is overdue.
