Sweet

by @emma-tomat

Cleaning out the dirt left in the kitchen Found something great, something special, Sweet poison sweet love Stinging like a bee like a sweet kiss soft in touch, but burning my heart all the same I'm not even crying but my eyes are tired Seeing things it doesn't want to see, Not even painful memories Just the harsh reality, of not love not even a deluded form just a microscopic feeling not even hate I found my solution Who knew it would come Like an Abusive relationship Between Heart, Home, and Sun Bruises and Bite marks Like a Dog might have malled maybe even a little letter No big or no small, What I'm saying is this doesn't hurt Or maybe it hurts too much Maybe I'm turning a little numb from just the right amount of shock I cant bear to even look just staring for a moment, hiding shame? is it shame I honestly don't know I just want to kiss you, but im kissing my skin because this doesnt hurt not the same kind of hurt we feel but a sweet sweet kind the kind only i can take
