I've given up writing December. I swear I tried, but these lines don't seem to care; The drugs never work. The haze of blinking eyes and wasted time feels like infinity. I want to misremember those wide eyed faces and your smirk when you said you were mine. (Words like knives.) I knew it was fatal as soon as you whispered that lie. I swear... I've given up this December. My words can't dig up the dirt to bury these Winter memories and these lonely goodbyes...

December
I've given up writing December. I swear I tried, but these lines don't seem to care; The drugs never work. The haze of blinking eyes and wasted time feels like infinity. I want to misremember those wide eyed faces and your smirk when you said you were mine. (Words like knives.) I knew it was fatal as soon as you whispered that lie. I swear... I've given up this December. My words can't dig up the dirt to bury these Winter memories and these lonely goodbyes...
