I want to brush my teeth until my mouth forgets your name and I know I shouldn’t feel the way I do and I’m sitting by my phone waiting for it to ring I’ve been here for three hours and nothing yet I’m painting my nails purple in hopes of brightening my ever decreasing levels in spirit you want to know how I got these scars? I fought a few demons and i got locked in my closet with your skeletons as well as mine you know you make my eyes burn and I’ll never let anyone break me I tried to poison your pictures I stuck pins in a doll I made of you I don’t want to be my mother and sit in my room on Sundays with the door shut and blinds drawn and use a headache as excuse of heartbreak
