The fragile silver of your eyes

The fragile silver of your eyes
Is full of salty smithereens.
My bitter truth looks at your lies
And wipes with handkerchiefs.
 
My heart’s turmoil screams and shouts –
A banshee, some witchcraft.
And when I cough, I cough with gouts.
I’d bled but I just laughed.
 
Elsewhere I’ll find my true self,
Let perish my dead past.
I’ll shove your book on a trite shelf
And there it won’t last.
 
Oh still not “darling”, still not “loved”,
I hope you’ll never be.
In other words… you are too roughed.
Why can’t I forget thee?
