K: For me, Wrath is a warm bed to fall into at the end of a long day. I’d much rather be angry than sad, so I close my eyes.

S: For me, patience is a warm blanket for when the thermostat stops working. My circulation contracts and my hands turn blue, so I hold them.

K: I hate you
S: I love you

S: I still say no to coffee dates because your burns are still on the tip of my tongue.

K: I hope her kisses burn through every layer of skin that they come in contact with.

S: I hope the ring you promised me is just as beautiful on her finger.

K: I hope your ring finger is stained green from our promise ring, I beg you tear away at the skin.

S: I remember how your heartbeat felt with my head against your chest and now I have to focus on mine to forget it.

k: thump, thump
s: thump, thump

K: I’ve become so angry I can feel my heartbeat in my fists.

S: It’s been 4 months and I still keep skype open on my computer screen.

K: You seem so happy on social media, I nearly pray that you cry yourself to sleep.

S: I hope the girl you thought would make you happy appreciates the body I tried so hard to help you feel okay about because god knows, I'm still waiting to do it myself.

K: I hope the girl that makes you the happiest you’ve ever been ends up making you feel disgusted about your own body just because she acted like she found worth in it.

K: you made MY body feel WORTHLESS
S: you made MY body feel WORTH IT

S: When I saw that you posted pictures of her with the caption "she's so beautiful", I just hoped that she would believe it when you decided not to.

K: When I saw a picture of you and another girl the first thing I thought to do was bash your nose in on the concrete.

S: when I told you to be happy, I meant it. whether it's with me or with her. I don't care. make yourself happy. you deserve it.

K: when I told you to be happy, I didn't mean it. I don't want you to find someone who loves you as much as I did because you don't deserve it. you didn't deserve me. you deserve pain.

K: and I hope you do what's worst for you.
S: and I hope you do what’s best for you.
