I took a shot at “I love you”
but the bullet hit me instead
somehow, it split in half
and hit both my heart and head
my mouth was a trigger
and my thoughts were ammunition
the weapon was fully loaded
but there was no warning for caution
once the gun was fired
there was nothing I could do
the shot was heard around the world
but my whole world was you
I collapsed onto the floor
and nobody sounded alarms
I just wanted to be held
in your bare arms
you had so much anger,
enough to fill war tanks,
I tried to engage in combat
but I was just firing blanks
you gauged the aftermath
and claimed it was collateral damage
but the war was never fair
you always held the advantage

the only things we share
are mutual hatred and air

Our hands held each other
Yet, I missed you anyway

through words,
I heal my wounds
by completely exposing them

like an ocean,
you appear to be warm
because you reflect
the sun's light
but truly
you're so cold
like an ocean,
I can't be quite sure
of your depth
until I have dove in
and sunk
to the bottom

You are an annoying insect
Slithering into my space
Swarming around me
Ticking off my patience
Crawling up my nerves
Buzzing in my ears
Infecting my happiness
Bugging me more each moment
Yet I cannot bring myself
To **** you

your red lips
were red flags
warning me
not to trespass
but I did anyways
and now I’m trapped
in your jail
for a crime
I innocently committed

There are two forms of regret:
Wishing you had
And wishing you hadn't

I hope you choke on every lie
You've ever told
And get slapped by all the hands
You used to hold
May you taste the tears
Of those you upset
And feel a hole in your heart
Filled with other's regrets
You shan't hear another
"I love you"
Since you're the worst person
I ever knew
