liars
they think you don't know
when they lie
but most of them are so bad at it
you can't help but know
did you sleep with anyone
besides me, you ask?
oh, no,
she says
of course
the person she slept with was
your best friend from grade school
who tells you everything
like how when they were having sex
she made a sound like a cat
and you know she makes that sound
when you have sex with her
so the next night with you
she doesn't make that sound because
you're fucking her real hard
she doesn't make any sound until she cries
when you get there without her
then stop and leave
and on the way out, say,
don't worry darling, i'll be back tomorrow
as if you will
