peanut butter
Alysss May 2014
Whenever I eat peanut butter it reminds me of the nights you'd come stumbling through the door, home from the bar for the night. Then you'd fall into the kitchen.
I'd wake up to the sound of banging cabinets, and when I'd walk out I'd always see you at our old kitchen table with a spoon in one hand and a jar of jiffy in the other. We'd sit down and eat spoonfuls and laugh and talk, and you'd let me stay up even though it was past my bed time. I was your little girl who looking up to a daddy who as i grew up, I'll soon see wasn't as sweet as he seemed to be.

I hold you and we smile and your eyes are so ******* bright baby they make me shine
and then the anger either you or me or both you know how it goes we have no control
the things you say hurt you know I try not to bring them up but my every wrong is documented and brought to court when you yell at me
I love you I do I do were so much alike just us two us two
I want it to last forever, but I feel days breaking a distant but a pull and the outcome we won't know baby until the day it's warm n sunny or cold winter snow
