you were a swimming pool.
and i wanted to dive
into the deep end.
but you were much shallower
than you appeared
and i ended up
hitting my head
on the bottom
of your
empty
*******
heart.

way too beautiful

you're
way
too
beautiful
to
love
anyone
but
the
ghost
staring
back
at
you
in
the
mirror

six feet under

banksy once said
"i mean, they say you die twice.
once when you stop breathing
and a second, a little later on,
when somebody says your name for the last time."
you killed me when you broke my ******* heart.
and i know you haven't said my name in months.
so i guess i'm practically six feet under.

hot and cold

i miss you and you're right in front of me. its like your body is here but your heart is not. you're only touching me but not actually feeling me and i swear to god i've never felt so cold. i just want to feel the heat of your breathe on my neck and the warmth of the love in your eyes melting my soul.

words

i
always thought
words were things
meant to be believed
and trusted and valued.
but then
a beautiful rearranged
alphabet
dripped out of your mouth
and i drank
it up.
evil and lies are always
beautiful, aren't they?

bonfire

the fire
was dancing
that night.
and i was
too.
i had liquid
courage
and a boy
to impress.
maybe
thats why
i ended up
in the back
of a truck
with this
unfamiliar
boy.
i guess he
was just looking
for the light
and
i was one with
the fire that night.
thats why,
in the end
we both
ended
up
burned.

w e t

you started out as a slow rainfall, gently covering me in a layer of what i thought to be love. but my god, you turned out to be the worst ******* hurricane anyone had ever seen. and what you covered everything in was definitely nothing even close to love.
