I belonged to no one. Rode into the sunset with boys whose lips tasted of cigarettes and regret. My mouth was always blood stained red like the sins I was to commit that night. Grey skies and you came around smelling like vanilla, tasting even better. I might've inhaled you as our breathing pattern became one. Slowly then all at once I got lost in you. Wiping my lips clean, cleansing my dark aura on ecstasy with a few more skeletons stilled buried beneath my nails. The moon pulled the tides and I needed you to need me as I collapsed to my knees. Shouting to the God I don't believe in, and I vowed to protect you for there I finally loved you.
