The words I write on this page won't even matter,
Because you're my number one but to you I'm just the latter,
I don't know if it's a phase or if we're wasting each others time,
Or it's become a stupid show you can no longer mime,
But you stopped telling me how you're feeling,
And ever since I haven't been ******* breathing
I don't want you to forget me

Nouns
Merry Swain Apr 2016
Recently I have learnt that you should never watch the sun set with the one you love,
Because when it's gone, and the sun is going down,
It will feel like a million stabs,
In a million different places,
And you will finally understand why storms are named after nouns,
And not adjectives
"Don't bother"

My mother once said she didn't understand how anyone could drink straight *****,
She asked me what I tasted when I poured it into myself,
Most people will tell you it tastes like nail varnish remover or gasoline,
But when that liquid burns me from the inside out,
All I can taste is
*******
Relapse
2:14am and I still ******* miss you

You are not here but your fingerprints have not washed off,
but one day I'll wake up and it won't hurt anymore.
I don't think you realise that I want you more than anyone else,
And I don't think my feelings will ever change.
I need you to tell me you love me just so I can sleep at night.
I guess I found my home in the wrong person
