You didn’t give me a reason to write, you sat your words in my lap and I had no choice but to rearrange them.

You are my dictionary
I didn’t even know I had the capacity to harm I was always The one who was hurt The one who would come to your aid whenever you were hurt But now I’ve become the monster I’d never hoped to meet Who am I now that I am not the harmed

Unforeseen
I apply my love with water and a sponge but like a small child you rub and pick and poke and **** until it’s gone I have endless tattoos and one day when your older I’ll give you one in ink

Semipermanent
My life has become a series of tests, How long can I go with the ache in my stomach How long can I push through my social burnout How many days can I sleep without a pillow How long can I go without texting you And I find ways to fail them all

The clocks are always ticking Something I never found annoying Until I realized that with every tik I had one less second with you

Inevitably
Jeans used to make me nauseous Plant pots make me shake A hairbrush could make me crumble But your lips may be the only thing without flaw

Sensory overload
Holding you is like holding the sun Your warmth is overwhelming But all I want is to sink in To stay a while Even if a while is a minute or two

Time vs touch
Thoughts are swimming Mostly sinking Trying to grasp at broken rope I can't breathe I can't see And this time I don't want to be brought back to shore Id rather feel nothing than this endless something
