Dec 2018
It's been a year and a half since I kissed Death
But much like a ****** boyfriend Death won't commit

I was a vicious flirt
With every temping drop of blood
The violent drinking
The immense lifelessness within me
Yet he never took the bait

I don't know how many times I put myself on the line
Feeling the sweet embrace surround me as my life drained out into puddles of crimson
Feeling all the pain and hate fade away into darkness
But he always let go
Let me fall from his arms back into this cold cruel world
Alone and Broken

Every letter I wrote for the people of this world
All for nothing
Every Goodbye
Just a lie
I threw myself at his feet
But he abandoned me when I needed him the most
