But there was love hidden in the
sadness,


I know there was.
It doesn't matter how many people you talk to at the end of the day when everyone is asleep you feel it, you feel alone. No one understands your ****** up brain no one understands why you hide behind all those coping mechanisms. You are the only one. You can never learn love, because you never saw what it looked like. *these, I believe, are the lies you tell yourself before you go to sleep. I know, because I knew. I do it sometimes too.*

I mouthed the words while we were lying on your bed
Your fingers tracing my arm
Our faces so close
Our legs so tangled
Your eyes were closed
You tell me I am the only person you feel comfortable talking about 'feelings' with

My arm on your neck
I mouthed the words I don't yet know if I could ever say to your face
I don't know if I will ever understand them enough to
"It's different with you"
"It's never been like this before"
We work so well
You make me so happy
"I'm usually a depressed ******* in the summer, but this summer is so different. Not all because of you 'cause that wouldn't be healthy. But you changed something in me."

And I know you're not perfect
And you know I'm not perfect
But together

We're pretty **** close.

We used to say **** like
I should've kissed you

Now all we do is ask for nudes
But now that I'm here
I wonder who the **** would want this
Over that

You ever look at a message and don't open it
Because you know if you do
You'll have to respond
And you just dont know how to



Right now
He kills me

I check my calender
I'm running out of time
But they say summer
is just a state of mind

Not even us

Did you die?
After you fell in love for the first time?
Did the summer sun soak you up,
Did the moon blow you one last kiss?
Did you look at them and smile,
Because you assumed you were ready for it?
I was wrong.

We both have twin holes in our walls
From when we were feeling a little too broken and we wanted something else to crumble and get ripped open from all of the wrong

We get angry
Our mothers agree
Its not healthy
But you're just like me
And I haven't met many people with that similarity
And you miss me
When I'm gone
And you like to write songs
But I don't know how to sing
Poetry is just another outlet
But maybe it's not a good thing
And your body on mine
It was far more then fine
And I made you ask before every touch
You love my hair
I fell for your everywhere
But neither of us are any good at love

So I said no
To the dates and the roses
And everything that comes with teenage commitment
I don't want any of it
But I don't want you kissing

Anyone other than me

I know
I know

I'm so selfish
Yeah its true
Plenty of people that know me
Could
Tell
You
