your fingers dig into my flesh and peel back my skin and expose me to the open air and it stings and i know i need to forget you but it hurts to heal. i don't know whats more painful - the feeling in my stomach that reminds me of rain pounding on the top of a car or the way the road looks when the only light that is shining comes from this guilty look in my eyes i feel sorry even though i ******* know i shouldn't i should hang these thoughts like prayer flags across all the doorways in my body i should paint my insides wall by wall, the prettiest color you've ever seen so that i can call this place where i've been living for so long 'home'
