Your name is a drawstring laced around my neck
Tighter with every breath
Your name is a drawstring laced around my neck
Tighter with every breath
And though I probably deserve this noose
There’s one thing I’d like to adduce
Something many weeks and months overdue
Just know I never resented you
Not that I expect that to
Make anything right
Or rectified
Just know I never resented you
And I understand if you
Can’t stand the sound or sight of my name
