everything had stopped
even my tears
and the feelings were all gone
even my fear
when you told me you were leaving
and your eyes lit like gold
in that moment i knew
i had given you my soul

you are sun kissed
blooming with greatness
but this double perception of the spirit
weighs you down
the bottom of the deep, dark ocean
where your skin forgets the feeling of the sunlight

it was soft tidal waves
it was the grass browning
it was the last leaf falling
the last breath
it was winter
it was pure
it was beautiful
it was free
when i gave up on me
but when you gave up on me
my veins screamed
and my heart burst too

this void i am made of
disintegrates
when i look into your eyes
and your hand touches mine

i've been sleeping with skeletons again lately
and drenching myself in purfume
so no one can smell my dead passion or the inspiration i always seem to lose
i keep hearing what you said and
i'm hearing dead poems being recited in my head again and i know my words will outlive me like they outlived you and that keeps me company
i've been writing things that don't make sense and sitting outside burning books again
*i've been sleeping with skeletons
again
they tell me not to write these things down again*

where is my mind
where did it go
i must have lost it
while searching for you
and the gun that destroyed
your lovely eyes
and blew your ******* brains
all over the driveway
and all over my mind
maybe it should stay lost
maybe i should too

it was pouring when i left your house that november night and everything reminded me of you
like the spot that the windshield
wipers can never reach
god, i didn't see that car coming
but i swear you were the last thing
going through my mind
before it went through the windshield

i'm walking through the woods
without shoes
feeling the earth beneath me
hoping i'll step on a piece
of you
of the love you said you would have for me
forever and ever
until our bones became dirt
