I wanted to kiss Death one Monday afternoon,
but Death had moved his face away from mine,
instead putting his chapped lips to my ear and whispered,
"my girl, you are too beautiful and too loved, you have too much to offer for something as dark and as lonely to kiss you.
so my girl, I will give you Life instead, and you will take her hands in yours, allowing yourself to be the strong girl I know you can be.
and when it's your time,
I will let you kiss me,
but my girl,
that time is not now."
Death had vanished from my view,
and was replaced with the wonderful mystery of Life.
I took her hands in mine,
filled with the desire that maybe I did have something to offer.

I remember when you stripped me of my shirt that one Friday evening,

the words "you're so ****" escaped your lips,

but as soon as I refused to do what you wanted me to do as the night dragged on,

you drove me home and nasty words came in texts the days that followed,

and maybe this is why I'm scared to fall for someone again.

1, 2, 3, 4,*
    I declare a ****** war.
5, 6, 7, 8,
    Strap up and don't be late.
9, 10,
    Come on over, let's begin.  
11, 12,
    Point my shotgun to your head.
1, 2, 3, 4,
    Why'd I find you in her bed?
5, 6, 7, 8,
    Don't move, it's already too late.
9, 10,
    Hit the floor.
11, 12,
    You're no more.
1, 2, 3, 4, I declare a thumb war.

You used to always tell me goodnight,
now you won't even tell me hello.
funny how things work now
I just wish I knew how your mind worked

the only time I'll feel beautiful is if you tell me while you have me pinned up against a wall,
your breath against my neck as the word escapes your lips before they press against mine,
the weight of your body pushing me against the wall harder,
and in that second,
I will realize I only feel beautiful is when I'm with you,
and that's such a cliche thing to feel.
I smell like chlorine, I really miss the boy I'm absolutely in love with and Im mad at myself for denying the date the other day, and the song "wow, I can get ****** too" by say anything is a really great song

I eventually cried out and made you notice me again.
people have a tendency to leave me with telling me so. so I called them out on it without actually saying names, and some came running back.
and I questioned whether they were desperate, I was desperate, or I was actually worth it and they were missing out.
