How to stop My thoughts from running To you From painting Phantom pictures Of soft touches Warm words Festive times Spent together In each other's arms Where only happiness Can be found And the safety You provide When everything feels scary And I feel wary Of every choice I make You feel right How to stop My hands from shaking My blood from boiling My thoughts from wandering To your face, your smile, your embrace To your scarred hands Caressing me As I tremble How to stop My mind from pretending You didn't take your knife Of self-centered crap Of idealization of my body As if I'm nothing else Than my body My ******* My *** And stop myself from forgetting How the wheels always turn And come back to the same Unique Mistake How to stop justifying Your actions As to not Lose you While I Lose myself

How to stop loving you
How to stop My thoughts from running To you From painting Phantom pictures Of soft touches Warm words Festive times Spent together In each other's arms Where only happiness Can be found And the safety You provide When everything feels scary And I feel wary Of every choice I make You feel right How to stop My hands from shaking My blood from boiling My thoughts from wandering To your face, your smile, your embrace To your scarred hands Caressing me As I tremble How to stop My mind from pretending You didn't take your knife Of self-centered crap Of idealization of my body As if I'm nothing else Than my body My ******* My *** And stop myself from forgetting How the wheels always turn And come back to the same Unique Mistake How to stop justifying Your actions As to not Lose you While I Lose myself
