I always thought that you had galaxies in your eyes, and the planets flowing through your veins and flowers growing in your heart.
But as time goes on I'm starting to realize that it wasn't your touch that sparked my skin, and it wasn't your words that made me fly.
I always thought that you were going to be the one to set me free and show me the world.
But in the end, you showed me how to stand in the light just right so my eyes would gleam as my mouth spilled lies, you taught me how to touch someone so lightly because you don't actually want to be touching them in the first place. You taught me how to kiss someone without feeling the stars on their lips. And you taught me to look for astroids in someone's eyes because they may look beautiful, but my god are they dangerous. //just like you.
I wrote this after a break up. it's been 3 months since our departure from one another and I am still invested in her.
