guess

i can't guess your thoughts.

it's a game of headbandz with no pictures.

i can't counter your chess moves,

you got me checkmated instantly.

i keep asking if you have any cards

and you keep saying go fish.

i try to tell you how i feel,

but the words don't come out right,

it's just a mess of falling dominoes.

you play monopoly with my body,

collecting bits of happiness

when you pass go.

you rip my organs out,

a twisted game of operation.

every friday is board game night.

and i dread playing with you.
