six feet under
anonymous May 2017
my heart has an empty hole in it where you once lived
now i'm stuck loving someone who is six feet under the ground
your words from years ago suffocate and it's hard to breathe
i feel like i'm losing space
the flowers you planted in my chest have stopped growing
one by one the petals are plucked away
and still under everything in both of us is each other
so please tell me how i'm supposed to love anyone the way i loved you?
you made your mark on me and now i'm left to continue on with the pain
while you're six feet under the ground

the blood from your busted lip is still stained onto that stupid blanket
i drove past those arches where you left your mark
some stupid names are covering the void you created
your words will slowly be covered in layers and layers of paint
still there's but long gone undernearth the meaningless words of others
this time there will be no more "i miss you"'s
or an hour drive to my house
this time i will let you go
and you will do the same
heartbreak, breakup,

forever
anonymous May 2017
i told you i wanted forever so this ones for you
whenever i look down i see them all in my skin
the stomach scars from when he yelled at me
"stop eating all that junk food so late"
the burn mark from when she left me in the cold "i'm sorry i can't do this i have to go"
the new red ones on my thigh where you touched
"she didn't mean anything i swear"
stuck on my body forever
but never important enough to be ink
i told you i wanted forever
so now this blood is on your hands

it's easy to starve
anonymous May 2017
it's easy to starve yourself
it's easier to starve when she starved you of love
you count your **** ups like i count my calories
that feeling in the pit of your stomach
it starts to become addictive
and just like your love
that emptiness swallows me whole
and sometimes i can't tell if it's hunger
or maybe it's the hollow feeling of abandonment
but i just can't seem to tell them apart anymore

— The End —
