It's 15 minutes to 12,
where are you?
I've been missing you lately,
trying to hide these feelings
under a layer of foundation
but the truth reveals itself
when the rain comes
and it all gets washed away.
I've been wanting you lately,
two perfect circles of blush on red
relate the want and the need
which only grows with
the fire inside me.
I've been hating you lately,
plucking at your existence in my memories
but no matter how hard i try
you keep growing back.
I've been loving you again lately,
My red lips and wet hair:
a testament to your broken shrine
which used to live inside me.

You've been thinking about me lately?
Your loss honey,
the rain is here.
Watch me go and wash you away
