****. It’s ironic how empty I am
because I swear 6 months ago,
I had the universe inside of me.
But I cried the rivers in my bones dry.
The volcanoes in my chest erupted when you told me you didn’t love me anymore,
The lava flowed and my body hardened
Till I stopped sleeping.
I had stars in my lungs but I burned them
all out with the cigarettes I was smoking
to get you the **** out of my throat.
The flowers growing at the bottoms of my
stomach are dead.
Apparently you can’t water flowers with *****.
I had the sky in my veins but it’s been pretty ******* stormy since I
ripped them open.
I had planets on the tip of my tongue but
the remains of “us” have been crashing into them.
I was everything.
And then I met you and we were everything.
Now you’re ******* some girl who gets
high all the time and
I’m
A
*******
Mess.
