I can't be the only one
held responsible
when I drown
in your ocean eyes.

how sad it is,
we no longer touch ourselves
with thoughts of ***
in our head.
love has become so taboo,
we now fantasize about that
instead.

I bite my tongue
and use the blood
to paint these words.

Naiveness does not plague me.*

You are nothing more
than one too many drinks,

nothing more
than sweat-stained sheets.

During times of sadness,
when you're drowning in your tears,

and who pushed you off the pier.

It smelled like you
and past nights of regret.
