And so
I let
the constant
icy fear
of his
leaving me
colour my heart
so blue,
he eventually
had little choice
but to do
just that.

Maybe
someday
we'll
be
intoxicated
enough
to talk
about it.

All we
ever did,
he and I,
was
**** up.
Our bodies,
our relationships,
our lives,
each other.
But
in a
strange way,
I guess
thats why
we went
so neatly
together.
'You're not quite right in the head,
and nor am I,
and this is why,
this is why I like you...'

You tell me
baby,
I will only
break your
heart.
I tell you
honey,
it's adorable
that you think
I still
have one
left
to break.

Dear one,
do not
wander
too deeply
into the
dark lands
of my heart;
there are
monsters
there.

For some,
life
is simply
an experiment
to see
how many
knives
and
arrows
to the back
one person
can take
and remain
standing.
This is a low.
Alex Clarke Oct 2015
You and I
are
scar tissue
that
I worry
and pick
and pull
endlessly,
and yet
I still
cry out
in shock
and pain
when
I cause us
to bleed
again.
