Heather E Perry
Last night you poured out on the bed,
drained the lies from your mind, and cleared your head.
Cleansing tears, washing away fears,
promising to be the man I’ve deserved for years.
Methods of destruction, from your drawers to the trash.
Setting fire to the old, till all that remained was ash.
Starting new, this time for good;
putting me first, like you know you should,
loving yourself more then you previously could.  

Because this time,
you got it right.
This time,
you know it’s worth the fight.

And there is a light at the end of this road.
You have so much beauty, just ready to be showed.
Like a raincloud, just ready to explode, and I love it.

Every piece of you.

Can’t you see your brokenness is perfect to me?

I’ll love you through the fall,
withdrawal.
Help you break down each wall,
close call.
Until you are that man I know you can’t hide.
The greatest recovery of all; The man inside.

I wrapped my lips
around your neck

Drank you down
kept palates wet

You left marks
I know just what
you meant

Bottoms up
     choke the message down
Little girl
     Do you wanna tear each other apart?
****** set
     fire to my *****

Heart shaped x-ray glasses
Now reality is the new *** tape
We're all framed in

Oh,
The transgressions you keep rewinding
Because fantasies just slow you down
Oh,
When you wanna keep moving
find grace in what you're doing
Oh,
The progressions the soul makes
when it follows the
heart beaten
path
Oh,
Can you even last?
I know
sometimes
I can't

I just wanna get off one time
     and not apologize
For spilling my guts
     trying to center
Your settled half-emptied glass
When all you needed was a refill.
