Sunburn And Other Things You Have In Mind

I will scratch you off my back,
I will peel you off my skin.
I will not give you the benefit of water
To quench your thirst.
For all I care, you can dry up there

So that I could

Scratch you off my back, peel you off my skin.

You mean nothing to me now,
Nothing but garbage to me.
In the morning my cousin
Flor will sweep you off
My tiled floor and put
You on some GIGO heap in our backyard.

You're just one summer to me.

In no time, I'm gonna forget about you
And your existence won't even ring a bell
Anymore when I will try to recall my
Biggest failings.

My nails will look good on

You.
