i stopped reading your horoscopes i stopped telling you every little detail of my day and started telling you how rude and ignorant the world is i don't think i ever actually loved you. i don't look at you like you put the stars in the sky i don't study ever fine line on your face i don't kiss your hands i don't hold you to make you feel okay i don't watch how your eye color changes in the sunset I've never kissed you the way i kiss her i read her horoscopes i tell her about my day and she tells me what she has planned for the future shes starts placing stars in my sky carefully and individually i look at the lines on her face i kiss her hands i hold her as if she is a fond memory trying to escape my mind i watch the way her eyes change from rich chocolate to creamy coffee in the sun i kiss her like its the last time i'll ever see her i think i love her and i now know that I've never loved you.

i am cancer i am death caked in makeup i am the creaky floor boards in the attic i am the foul words that leave your mothers lips and the stench of the alcohol that rolls off your fathers tongue i creep through the walls at night looking for a light heart to help with the demons that haunt my every move i am torturous laughter and pitiful silence dont not get close to me i will burn everything you own leaving you bitter and weeping gasping for fresh air

YOU CAN SEE THE PAIN ETCHED INTO HER SKIN THE SORROW BURNED INTO HER CORE MOURN AND LOSS OVER YOUR CORPSE YOU DIDN'T THINK TWICE MAYBE I WONT EITHER.
