I hope she has my hair
I hope she has my hair
that when her curls fall
across your face you hear
my voice, my sigh, a laugh
that when her curls fall
across your face you hear
my voice, my sigh, a laugh

And people wonder why I struggle to sleep
My answer
I forgot how to count sheep
After the night you sliced up my dreams and threw me into relentless nightmares.

i really hope all those subtle glances
and soft touches were real
because if not,
i don't think i can survive it again
"i'm scared of the what could've beens."

i could sit here,
and let the words pour out.

have the pain drip from my fingertips,
the memories,
of my first love,
and kiss,
and the day he first held my hand.
maybe i'll talk about when he left for her,
that other girl,who had a prettier face,
and a smaller waist.
i lost him,
i lost him to her and that hurts,
but i won't say anything out loud,
i'll just write it on here.
"pain has this painful way, of slowly creeping up on you until your paralyzed."

and like all
beautiful
things i
wanted to
start you
over so that
your beauty
would
belong to
me instead.
what i never
realized was
that your
beauty
was still
growing.

The ice in her latte melts
slowly and I chew the rhubarb
pie thoughtfully, wondering if I
care for a response. Nothing good
has really happened to them since I
started there,
I say, stealing a sip.

I'd say you bring out the worst in
people,
she replies, and I glance up from the bowl,

She smiles and takes the cold cup back.

*I mean to say that you draw the poison out.
