Light it up
I’m never enough
Burn it down
To the ground
Smoke and flames
Done playing your games
But like fire, there was always a catch
Lit a match
But never a spark,
So I started a fire... light in the dark

Deep down,
In the darkest depths of despair,
You’ll find me living there.

Naked. My heart out there for you to view.
Unclothed. A bath full of memories I drew.
Exposed. I bare my scars for you.

Heartbroken,
Eyes swollen,
Innocence stolen

The way I smiled
When I said your name
But my heart still hurt,
All the same

I will always love you.
But
I hate you
For doing this to me.

Silence. Wait by the phone.
Tears. You feel alone.
Deep cuts. Addiction prone.
Aroma. Fangirl, full blown.
Protective. You treat me as your own.
Singular. You left me to get ******.

Unopened propane
Unlit match
Unfired gun
There’s always a catch
