Poseidon

Thanking Poseidon for rain in boston
He was thinking of you
The water filled up your lungs
And turned my fingers a new shade of blue

Lay down, hospital gown
One heart broken, one more to go
Chained fence, house arrest
Said you had the flu, but it was a cold

Thanking Poseidon for floods in boston
He was thinking of you
I watched you tear up our sacred garden
And pulled me right from the roots

A typhoon
My bedroom
You said you’d be real
But you’re a ghost
Hate the beach
Ignore my needs
Because of you
I can’t stand the east coast

Thanking Poseidon for oceans in boston
I asked him to kill me for you
He told me I was a wildfire
And I sunk where the daisies grew

Hold on too strong
Poured in the bleach
And gagged my mouth
Your bathroom floor
Behind closed doors
The Sun shined through
And washed me out
