i still wear your t-shirt to sleep
i still slit my wrists at night
i feel safe inside your t-shirt at night
i still listen to the songs
that you used to sing
i still replay the sound of your laugh
when i hated the smell of tuna
in your dorm room after
we cuddled
i still remember the way your
fingers felt running
through my hair
i still get excited when i see dogs
i still like to argue
i still cry because i miss you
i still wear your t-shirt to sleep

you're only happy when your head is filled with dope
i keep jumping at the slightest of sounds
you can't see the person inside of me
keep putting the mask on
you're only happy when my clothes are on your floor
should the pain scare me
im familiar with what's inside of my head
you beg me to tell you
but you're not happy
unless your sorry head is filled with dope
i should be scaring you

my heart
is shattered

two hundred pieces
on my tile floor

i clinch the bathroom counter

i step on a piece
i don't mind the blood

its everywhere

my heart
is shattered

..
when it's five in the morning and all i can imagine is your hands against my skin it becomes so hard to even breathe

your hand brushed against mine when i went to open the door
your hand brushed against mine when i turned on the radio
maybe it was a sign
you gave me a hug that day
for 15 seconds i felt safe
you dried my tears that day
i remember the feeling of your thumb on my cheek
maybe it was a sign

Mad
I find myself finding it harder to sleep at night
I can't help thinking maybe it's the light
I turn it off
and my mind creates images you can only see in the dark
I turn it back on
and my thoughts go on and on
I toss and turn
and close my eyes
I can hear the clock ticking as time flies
I open my eyes and stare at the ceiling
please let me sleep, I am more than willing
For a while I can feel myself drifting away
Hello sleep, I'm on my way
But the voices
The lights
They won't let me sleep
Playing in my mind like an eager child
I'm ragged
Weary
Drowing in my own thoughts
I close my eyes and try again
I can feel daytime crawling on my window
I need more time, I wish I could borrow
