She was an ocean
during a storm
with the tide raising
            up
               up
                  up
and I was wading through your frigid waters
with stones in my pocket
but your love was worth drowning in

I soak
  My pillows
              In tears
So often
   That they've
                Begun
To grow mold

I wish that, for once when I heard

I Love You

There wasn't an expiration date attached.

I think
   I outsource love
Because
   I don't believe
I deserve my own

If I was there
  I'd run my fingers through his hair
Tell him how much I truly care
  I'd sing to him softly
and kiss him loftily
I would talk about non-sense
and everything of importance

If I was there
I wouldn't be in such disrepair.

A simple kiss
one gentle caress of the lips
a small tug of the hips
Sends my thoughts in a twist
  and my judgment to miss

It's utter bliss
and complete oblivion

Head over heels
My worlds upside down
with you in it's center spinning 'round
and bringing me down.

I’ve been beaten and abused
My body’s been used
My skin I scarred
My heart is left hard
My mind is weak
My outlook is bleak.
