you tell me that when you think of me, you think "good person." is that so? i want to tell you how much i appreciate the sentiments or how you make me feel just a                                 little less rotten but the words stay hostage inside my mouth. i want to be good. i want to be kind, i want to be holy, sacred. i want to i want to. but this tenderness was forged in the fire and the fire is all it will ever know.
