Domino from Late Great by Laura Stevenson

Have been half dead for you.
Glad it’s ended for you,
for you I truly am.

Untoward til it was done,
falling forward, Domino,
when you said what you said, and I believed it.

Even gruesome when it was new,
I looked so foolish with you,
and through all the eyes of everyone I told
that I was lost then I was found.
Let them unknow what was to follow.

Get me back in a machine,
you’re driving with your hand on my knee,
when it felt so correct.

Get me back,
even though I know how it ends.
Even though I, I know you never loved me,
but you said you did.
You said you did, you said it then,
and I naive believed it.

Get me back in a machine.
