Tonight.
I thought I heard your voice
And I almost threw up in my mouth
And I'm caught between thinking
It was happiness to see you again
or maybe I was just scared to see you on a day I had actually done my hair.
Because I know I couldn't handle it
If you let your eyes go soft,
let them slide over my curls
to push my bangs back.
And I know your lips would twitch up
in the smirk that I swear is only for me
and you'd just look at me.
My chest would open to you
explode for you
and you would ask me to clean up after
mop the blood off your brow and smile
And I would.
I've been doing so well this last month
