i have been told one million times that love conquers all but it seems the coordinates of my existence have never been found or voyaged too. i thought i had found my destination in you, i guess the atlas i used was obsolete and rotten. i tried to sail away from you but i arrived at stormy seas, the north star i followed burned like your kisses, which scorched my mouth like my first menthol cigarette. when i tried to soar, you crashed into me like a wrecking ball. and we came down, blaring, burning as you touched my skin turning it to ash
