The best people in life are free.
-taylor swift
I can’t keep crying
over the people I used
to be, and wishing

I could be dying
because of that feeling of
what was you and me.
Her body spoke of him.
His mind spoke of her.

Their hearts didn't speak to each other.
The fastest way to a kiss
Is a kiss, she said. *So,
She just bit my lip.
I hate her.

You used to be the golden sun and lingering kisses.
But now you're the reason thorns grow around my heart
and the reason my poetry is filled with metaphors for heartbreak.
peeling potatoes with grandma, she tells me how grandpa used to do this for her. there's milk in the pan now & everything is one shade darker today. ashes & potato skins litter the kitchen floor.

It's been awhile now,
Since I have sang my sins,
Even after a thousand broken hymns,
I still reside on my knees,
Praying to an unfamiliar face,
Studying the sound of your scripture,
I followed the rules and everything,
But still I reside on my knees,
Hoping that one day my thoughts will clear,
And your name will shine from my tongue

Without even trying
She commands my attention
Her body and mind
The worlds most beautiful inventions
And I have every intention
Of showing her
Just what a masterpiece
Every inch of her
Is.
they say whenever you dream about someone
they're dreaming about you too

so whenever i stab you
shoot you
drown you
*** you

do you dream the same?
its one of them nights
