Love Sick
Ash Love Oct 2017
Do you ever really move on
From your first

I still get that feeling
In this huge city

Will I see him?
Will he see me?

No one has done better
with making me Love Sick

I thought I could play like you
I thought I was playing WITH you

I was just playing along
With my own Love Sick song

ME TOO
Ash Love Oct 2017
We've kept our secrets
For far too long
We've let you win
For far too long

It happened in high school
"Friends" grabbing me from behind
"You've matured faster than the other girls"

It happened in college
Pushed me against a wall
"Don't you want a kiss?"

It happened in college
Cornered me in a room
I escaped to a bathroom
"You're seriously over reacting!"

It happened in college
"My friends have a blunt upstairs!"
No one else showed up
He ripped my shirt

It happened after college
Dancing at a bar
Started feeling me up, moving under my clothes
Was able to hold me there in the chaos
"We were just dancing!"

My father warned me
My father gave me pepper spray
My father taught me how to fight back
It still happened

My guy friends tried to protect me
My guy friends stuck up for me and other girls
My guy friends went with us to parties and random houses
It still happened

Ladies, stay strong
We will not go backward
Only forward

playing nice
Ash Love Oct 2017
Smiling faces
Whispering voices
Humanity bleeding in and out of view
Where will it take you today?
Will you escape unscathed?
Or will you succumb to the elemental differences.

Don't they say buy the ticket, take the ride?
There are no tickets for sale to this **** show
So strap in or strap up or
Whatever you need to do
Because we're all just playing nice
Underneath a mask or two

Moving On...
Ash Love Oct 2017
Laying there looking into your eyes
I can see you still love me
Your nose pressed against mine
Not saying a word
Soaking in each others energy

You say
"You're so pretty, you know that?"

I think
"Why did you cheat on me?"

Laying there looking into your eyes
I can see you still want me
Your hands on my body
You start to whisper
Giving me bad memories

You say
"Do you like that?"

I think
"Why now?"

Laying there looking into your eyes
I can see you are realizing
We are not the same as we used to be
I'm less naive
You're less familiar

I was 14
He was 15

I felt that love
He felt that lust

I was frozen
He was hot to the touch

I held his hand
He grabbed my hips

I felt his anger
He felt for me

Laying and waiting
Jealousy can be such an ugly thing

— The End —
