i water the flowers in my chest with whiskey, dying to drown you out of my system, but i just get drunk your face reflects at the bottom of each shot glass i fill up just to find you again, it’s raining on my face again and i’m coughing up petals that scream he likes me not just to force feed them back down my throat so maybe some will seed maybe i’ll learn to stomach i meant nothing or maybe i’ll drown waiting for you to

lips lined in empty handles
i water the flowers in my chest with whiskey, dying to drown you out of my system, but i just get drunk your face reflects at the bottom of each shot glass i fill up just to find you again, it’s raining on my face again and i’m coughing up petals that scream he likes me not just to force feed them back down my throat so maybe some will seed maybe i’ll learn to stomach i meant nothing or maybe i’ll drown waiting for you to
