There is a sign on the door with her name on it
A red pillow pet in the form of a dog lays on her bed
Volleyball sit on the floor waiting to be played with
Orange curtains hang in front of her window
The pictures scattered on her wall say she she adores her friends
Books neatly placed on her shelf say she reads to much
Clean clothes in her closet waiting to be hung and the overflowing laundry basket say she's procrastinating
The drawings taped to her wall say she's an artist

your lies
they wow and terrify

your lies
bring tears to my blue eyes

your lies
I've learned to recognize

your lies
April's, May's, June's, then July's

your lies
boy, they immobilize

your lies
are no longer a surprise

I'm done trying to compromise
Just leave me, now.
And take your lies.

you're a drug
and i can't stop
i can't stop breaking myself down for you
i'll never have enough, and i'll never be enough

i tear myself apart, scrabbling for things to get you
and just an ounce of you makes me feel relevant
it makes me feel here
it makes me feel sane

but you are so toxic
i am losing myself trying to get to you
i am lost

this isn't your fault
it is mine

i need to quit.

i moonwalk, halo skewed and shredded.
sleep talk, mouth twisted, heart burning.

i am not an astronaut or an angel
or a small child- not anymore.

i used to be ethereal with stars in my eyes.
i used to be young and full of promise.

(promise me you see the gold
promise me you won't go blind)

i fall forward, my face buried in imagination,
i haul the sword, to cut this heart in half.

i'm not a soldier, or a courtier
or whole, i never was.

but i used to be ethereal.
oh!

i used to be, i used to be, i used to be...

I don't know how I'm feeling
I hope the thoughts of you stay in the year behind
All these useless ******* feelings
Those lonely nights up till the sun rises
I don't want to have you on my mind any longer
All you got me was ****** up
I never realised how it all was so stupid
I got over you
I will get over him
I will get over the next and many more
All feelings
All nothing

— The End —
