kidnapper



Kidnapper,

Oh kidnapper,

Why didn’t you take me sooner

What took your selfishness a while

Took your time to find me

Romantically

Like a short spring 

And a troubled summer

We’re here now and your beautiful

And so is your car 

And so is the gun

And the faster we go the more nostalgic this feels

The more I remember

Always wanting to belong

Always wanting to be taken

100 mph down an interstate with a glock kissing my ribs

And the sexual tension in that 

The sickness in that

This is my fate

Oh kidnapper

Love me in my last moments if you love anything at all

Ever

Let it be me

Let it be now

This night 

Like a wedding 

Like a candle 

Like a funeral

Light a cigarette after and let the world burn

Keep you warm

Pretty furnace 

Cold teeth 

Yours 

It’s all yours

Even the things you take with violence

With hate in your heart

With your father in mind

Please be tender once I’m gone

And tell people you loved me after that

Kidnapper 

Oh kidnapper

You beast with golden hair

You lost thing

Shoreline

Cigarette bud

Scorpio

Oh

How I hope you learn to love

The way I loved you
