january

by emimg

oh to be swinging with scratched corneas again, that's the life strawberry seeds stuck in gums, bones shedding from too much usage not feeling as empty as i do now what a cute little fantasy to live in what a shame, i feel so sick relapse and selfishness go hand in hand i've always been right, i am unlined and at home "finally fitting in? hesitating on showing another sign of weakness? did the palpitations ever simmer down? how depressing it is that your damaged body can't even feel the tetanus setting in (was the view worth it?) do his muscles ache when you dance with oncoming traffic?" some things are better left in the gutter long time no see babe, i'm glad we met i'd miss a thousand sunrises just to see the moon with you you know how much i love having bruised clavicles but please release my shoulders i wish i could unsew my stitched smile when i think of you these pieces aren't fitting together, it's all so forced i'm happy to be alive but it hurts it'll get better, i promise art is subjective, this love is not be grateful you were ever a thought let's just start over: hi, i'm lonely heartache shared between two people that shouldn't walk the same ground delusion is driving me to people that are different versions of you, come back this isn't as fun as it used to be, i don't like being tossed around as much let's go back to only being strangers how do i get this thing to stop thinking?
