milquetoast

foresaken  scalpels

dig close to past lacerations

i think regret did me in long before you

there are pictures in a box

i remember burning

all the ashes ingested like memories through music

youre strong now at my expense

cant say im feeling like coming around

theres a song i used to hear

its to remind us of an end

we write to move on

but im still choking beneath my wound
