the maggots are eating my heart

i breathe in the dirt
i let you in first
i need you
to make me hurt

i forgot you were still haunting me
you're the figure i see in the dark, the man standing under the streetlight with the reflective halo hovering his head
you're the fire burning in the pit of my stomach
i threw up on that same street

Plea To Bad Habits
rose Apr 2017
Defense against the worthless
The mistaken
The pure
The biting of nails and procrastinating
Losing keys yet finding them in the *** of tea you’ve been meaning to put away for weeks
Never texting that one person back because you’re “too busy”
Sleeping only for twenty minutes
And waking up at 5:00 p.m
On the kitchen floor
After burning, itchy eyes
Because you couldn’t find the motivation to close them

My love is a ****** in slow motion
until you pull the trigger.
Then it becomes an orchestra.

I am a lipstick stained cigarette
I am the bullet played in Russian Roulette
