I cut into your heart like a juicy steak.
You stabbed mine back,
as we bled our mistake.

We left each other for good.
I had missed you,
then I didn't.
Time found the wound
and sealed it up.

Love is fearless
Except for time.
If someone you know has a broken heart
go to a store
and buy them a clock.

Say less say more.

Say less
say more.

Say

say
more.

Say
less say more

Say less say
more.

Ugly
smudges on mirror
sleepless
bags
tangled hair
I carry yesterday's mistakes into the shower.
Water dripping
with heat
suds
naked skin
buried in my knees
I cry till the water shuts off.
Tears drip
on a
towel as
I smile at the mirror
and dress myself in lies.

Ash
Hello.
Goodbye.
Hello turned to ash in my mouth
So I kept on walking.
Someday I will cry
For all the friendly strangers
Mistook for ash in my eye.

And then, it comes back,
Life ain’t forever.
But I wanna know,
Can we still chill when I’m dead?
