i don't know what to call this except embarrassing.they say we accept the love we think we deserve / and you need to know that i have spent three years / thinking of your smile, and your laugh, and the touch of your hand, and being held as i sleep

it's valentine's day again.what do you say to someone / to tell them everything you feel / when they were the reason behind

you called me your prodigal daughter.but i wonder, did i ever return? / i love you both, and can never / not even if all of our dreams

i have an international calling card with your name on it.this was going to be a poem of epic proportions. / but not even poetry stands up to you and i anymore. / and every year it gets harder to explain this to you.

i decided the most honest thing to say is **** you.so **** you, honestly. because until tonight i thought i felt okay, but i think i’m lonely. / my heart sticks to the walls of my chest and i’m thankful for the cold because it means i can wear mittens and have an excuse for the spaces between my fingers to be empty. / it’s a quarter after three in the morning, and i miss you.

i don't need a better half, just my second half.nothing feels any different and nothing has changed / but i feel husked out and full of echoes. / nothing inside me makes any sense

i can't write anymore but oh my god, i am trying.i see you. / once: / in the way the light filters through the blinds.

i've made a terrible mistake.i don't think i love you right, / and maybe i don't even love you at all. / because there's something in you so sick
