misery loves company by kathryn kitzpatrick

Misery loves company
Loving you reluctantly
Opposite signs going down the same road
Speaking to me in your own secret code
The mark you made on me will always be my favorite scar
I can’t escape your reflection in passing by cars
Twenty minutes down the street
Kissing me in the backseat
Private moments we had backstage
I didn’t know what it was until I came of age
Your ceiling filled with posters I bought for you
You’re lucky I’m childish and I hate to lose
Your sycophants who feed your soul
Ignoring the one trapped within your black hole
I might be a bitch, but God do you gaslight
Taking pride in eclipsing my daylight
You said I looked better in the dark anyway
Failing to see I’m the stars on a pitch black Friday
