It's only on the nights that everyone's busy and my mind isn't occupied that I sit back and think about what we would've been doing on a quiet Saturday night. When my parents were out of town and the house was chilly and smelled like peppermint from the tea I'd be drinking.  I make my bed because I have nothing better to do and think about how we would be unmaking it in the most beautiful way if you were still here. But who knows if you're even you anymore because I haven't talked to you in so long. I drink alone to get rid of your memory, but I remember how your kisses tasted like ***** and strawberry gum and stop to cry for a moment because I miss those kisses so much.  And now I can't even make myself peppermint tea because it reminds me of the peaceful nights when I thought you loved me.

You're toxic
Camryn Oct 2016
I'm sick of the lies
Coating your tongue
Dancing and laughing
With every war won
But there is no melody
To the harsh words you speak
They pierce my ears
And cut my soul deep
I'm not sure how much
Abuse I can take
You act like I'm wrong
Though you made the mistakes
In the future let me know
How your heart goes on
Because when I see light
I will be gone

— The End —
