fragments of poems I'll never write about you
Walking on eggshells but the eggshells are made of glass / Could you tell the difference between my lips and the bottles'? / I tell people I barely know that you're my soulmate

I don't have it in me
I want you to imagine fixing a watch, all the tiny little parts / And I want you to imagine fixing a watch with broken hands / An overly involved metaphor for the idea that you can’t fix someone else when you yourself are broken

incoherent
My hands have a mind of their own / Melt down all my doubts to fill molds of jail cell bars / Of locks with no keys

Ask me about my past / I'll unstitch every seam / Tear everything out and lay it all on the table

She carefully creased the corners, / Bookmarking her favorite parts. / Because the words on those pages

nothing good happens after 2am
I've filled the hole you left with empty kisses from boys whose lips taste like ash trays and whose bodies aren't yours but fill the space you left in my bed anyway / I've filled it with smoke as I sat on the edge of a bathtub, bowl in hand listening to a stranger talk about how he still calls his dead mother by mistake sometimes / I've filled it with recipes of sleeping pills swallowed down with cough syrup and vodka and chased with a flat Diet Coke I might've opened last week
