When love has gone wrong
Run off to dark spaces
Desperately clinging to hope
Remembering those embraces
Butterflied chest and tears
And seething like a viper
In the car for 20 hours
Wearing an adult diaper
A last romantic gesture
To mend your broken heart
May push away with vigour
Forever to be apart
Don’t laugh at their madness
When Eros too was your sniper
At one time or another
We’ve all worn the diaper
Inspired by We Learn Nothing by Tim Kreider, recalling bad reactions to broken hearts
