******* and ****
her.
And every tattoo you have
to celebrate your perfect
relationship.
I guess 8 months mean more to some people than an upwards
of 5 years.
"You are my favorite human."
"No matter where we go in life, I will always love you."
"You will forever hold the biggest place in my heart."
Who knew that such a pretty face could conceal
so many lies?
So please forgive me if I no longer
wish you the best.
Apparently you've already got it.

You said,

"Tell me something amazing"

And all I could think of

Was to describe you

Exactly as you are

It’s 2 a.m. and I can’t remember the count

That this drink puts me at

But I so clearly recall

The lingering feeling of your lips against mine

After every kiss you remind me I deserve

I am not your tattered sweatshirt that you keep in the back of your closet,

The one you wear only when you get high.

I am not the too small pair of jeans that you keep around,

In hopes that one day you'll fit back into them.

I am not your ***** running shoes that you keep on a shelf in your room,

The one’s that make you sad every time you look at them because you did not win that race.

You will wear me with pride, or not at all

I’m sorry if

My words aren’t always

Honey and lavender

Most days they’re burnt

And the scent of smoke

Hugs them like a worn coat

You dug your way into my veins

Made yourself at home

And I can’t decide if I should let you stay

Or burn down this body you’ve made your own

Every bottle I put to my lips

Has not yet been deep enough to drown in

But I still search for something, because

Dear God

Nothing seems to silence

The constant screaming in my head

That no one hears

But me.

Maybe if you pull your trigger

I will finally have peace and

Quiet
