so I let you have *** with me knowing this will lead to nothing more than maybe a text “see you again next week” I let you have *** with me so I can pretend that when you hold my hand it means the same to you as it does to me and I let you have *** with me and I let you have *** with me

flies
the first time i broke a boy’s heart i cried as i watched his love bleed for me it poured out into my hands and still sticks to my hair this day i smell its death in the wind now, i break hearts with no pain, no remorse i watch the light flee from their eyes and i no longer cry what it’s like to be me? feel nothing create chaos feel nothing

i’m sorry
but it is not that easy distinguishing the need to extinguish can only be perfected through repeated failures burn holes of mistakes that will last, not a lifetime but long enough for you to still smell the smoke in your clothes and in your hair maybe just your memory i don’t know but i still smell it

casually suicidal
a sip of yesterday morning's coffee reminds me of you cold and bitter and "what else would you expect"; you'd say i keep drinking, knowing i could and should drink something better but i don't, i can't, and i won't this is life how i choose to make it; an endless cycle of coffee I'll never drink when I'm supposed to, but will always finish

coffee
crooked teeth means crooked smiles but perfect they are nonetheless found a lover in a friend and that's more than okay we don't have to promise each other anything other than the night

tasting you takes me back to times when I was younger not for the worse but for the better and your smile shows me the future light at the end of the tunnel getting brighter coming closer

familiarity is knowing exactly where you are just by looking at the tops of passing trees familiarity is also knowing every line and crack in his lips even in the dark
