She loves to smile at them all
cocking her head to the side
teeth sharp, eyes sharper
she's got wit

and the way she walks
long strides, determined
she lost her left eye the other week
she's still looking for it

Lend a hand? she asks
smiling, still smiling
it doesn't look joyful on her
But they help her all the same

now she's got another eye
one green, one brown
and that kid, he's still crying
but what's he crying about?

i feel like we're magnetic
but you like to switch up your charge
sometimes
you pull me in
and i get trapped
by your lovely
lovely
attractiveness
and just when i grow attached
just when i grow comfy
in the hollow of your chest
just when i grow to love you
all over again
you pull a 180
and push me away
and no matter how far i go
i can't reach you
and just when i start to let go
just when i grow comfy
in the warmth of my own skin
just when i grow to love myself
all on my own
you come back again
and i let you
because i feel like we're magnetic
when i say attractiveness i don't mean that necessarily in the physical sense

Only four letters
and simply one syllable;
such a dreadful word.

i spend too much time on my makeup
to let you mess up my mascara.

It's tiring to know
that life is an endless
revolving door
of people.
In and out,
some staying longer
than others.
Those who stay,
whose feet refuse to move,
are few and far between.
So when you find someone
who is firm by your side,
keep them close
and love them hard.

The hurt may go away
but your memory will
forever rest in my soul.

The moment I laid eyes on you I knew it would be you. I looked you up and down and I said to myself, "He looks like the kind of person that will break my heart." So I walked over, braced myself, and said hello.
Now that day feels like a million years ago
