She was like art in a museum;
so beautiful to look at,
but you could never get close enough to touch
too fragile...

You were my safe place
you wrapped yourself around me
like a blanket

but then you started to choke me
and even though you've now let go
I'm still suffocating.

I always wanted to change the world
but the world ended up changing me
and though my thoughts and memories haunt me
at least they keep me company

My whole body aches
sadness seeps into my bones
and crawls into the cracks of my veins
and trapped in my body it remains

You started a fire in me
and now all is left is decay
because when a glass heart beats
it shatters

I have knives dancing on my tongue
and i have a tendency to spit them out
pass me the poison
ill try and drown them out

So i'll drink whiskey as bitter as me
do drugs to feel something
ill do anything to escape the reality
that in life you have all or nothing.
