i sometimes hope
that i plague your mind
as often as you take over my own

because you are the only
consistent thought i have

and though youve become
more like a stain than a memory

ill never wash myself again
as long as your imprint
remains on my body

youve taken my place
in the back of his mustang,
but i hope you find
a strand of my hair
on the floorboards

no one can break me
because i am
already broken,
and all of the pieces
are too small
to smash any further

you are standing
right in front of me

but your gaze
shows that you are
honestly
thousands of miles away

like the rings of
saturn
you spin in endless
circles

and catch up to me
every so often
but then continue on
within your orbit

a song at random
woke me up at 2 a.m.

a song that shuffled
all of the cards in my deck

and turned up face cards
with your picture on them

every person
has baggage,
and it is your decision
whether or not
to help them
unpack.

i slept inside of your ribcage
until you purposefully broke all of your ribs

you threw yourself down the stairs
and didnt cry until i disappeared

i tried to repair your broken bones
but all i had to my name was some dental floss

now my teeth are rotting out of my skull
because i stitched you back together
