Ignoramoose

you made me feel stupid for thinking I could keep you even as our love began to fade i didn’t know we were finite i didn’t realize we even had an expiration date i guess the signs were obvious to everyone but us ’cause you’re a dumbass and I’m just an ignoramoose staying late after class to borrow macramé cord so i can rush home to an empty house and knot myself a fancy noose tomorrow’s a brand new day fresh hot born hope for change surrounded by old barricades maybe some joy snuck through my gates scribbled a genuine smile on my lemon-sour face i guess the signs were obvious to everyone but us ’cause you’re a dumbass and I’m just an ignoramoose staying til after closing to borrow your ear for a minute play my brand new song to a captive audience kick myself for repeating the pattern i feel stupid more than usual i feel stupid for thinking this time was different cause you're my dumbass and I'm your ignoramoose.... no matter what some stupid paper says.
