So much trouble perched between your lips.
A match flirting just at the edge.

All you have to do is light it
and everything bursts into flames.

But it still sits there.
Eager for something new to chase.

Light the match.

(priorities)

Your eyes,
so lost in everything

but me.

Was I really that ordinary?
I was last on your list of

meaningless
ludicrous
mundane

priorities.

(I beg you to go)

Please.

Leave now and break every piece of me

or*

leave later and make me forever incomplete.

Thank you.

(whisper goodbye)

Cold whispers through the air.
Caught only by your heart
and the thoughts that surround we.

The earth on fire would not
be enough to save us
from the chill between you and me.

So long my dear.

(unwhole)

I am imperfect.
I am unwhole.

I have been beaten and battered,
left without a soul.

As hard as I try,
I fall to my knees.

Begging for someone to comfort me.

Someone put me back together.

(intertwined)

My love.
You are lost.
But as am I.
How on earth,
will we ever
intertwine?

For you.

(lock and key)

Your heart was somewhere else.

I looked so hard,
but you hid it well.
