I'm not much of a reader But if I do, I could've read you Behind your lushful words Are barbwire of letters It felt like drinking alcohol Satisfying my thirst Resting inside my body Consuming every bit of me Tearing everything that's inside me I should've known You're trying to **** me Without you knowing "Another bottle" you said And I drank my heart out I drank as if it could be my last Because I want to be your last Hoping that what we have would last But it didn't, Nothing lasts forever Those who believe it are fools I guess you can call me one too
I'm not much of a reader And I'm glad I'm not Because If I could read you I wouldn't have guts to tell you That your words are hurting And it is still getting out of my skin You see, I got these scars From your words crawling out of my body
Since you've been gone I grew tired of hearing Endless tape recordings Of mundane problems Since you've been gone I became a reader Much more of a listener I read peoples faces How their eyes widen When they smell fear How the edge of their mouth Touches their ears Whenever they are happy But most importantly You freed me from the Chainless chain of memories Greeting me every morning With unpleasant memory
