Bruises on my neck,
a kiss on my lips,
I ran out of a cigarette,
you ran out of wine

Say nice things
when you think I don’t listen,
it helps me sleep,
the thought of you

I want you to stay
when I say the meanest things,
hoping you can read between the lines

Your essence left bare
in the words you speak,
all the secrets and desires,
your lips, your eyes, your hands,
all within my grasp

but why can't I reach you?
This is actually about a boy.

"Poor thing", I said when he got a papercut, he said I could blow on it,
he wasn't talking about the cut.
Not so innocent.

I cough when I choke, and I cry and I claw, I charm and I cling and I cheer and I call, I curl when I cuddle and I care and I calm, I chance and I commit and I cave and I fall.

The way you lie to me is so addicting.
I know it's an intoxicating oversaturated sweetness, but if I want it to be true bad enough, then it could be, right?

I wondered
what we'd still be
if we didn't

Me
I'm the type of person
who says
"sorry for saying sorry so much"
Sorry.
