i'm walking through the woods
without shoes
feeling the earth beneath me
hoping i'll step on a piece
of you
of the love you said you would have for me
forever and ever
until our bones became dirt

(cjw)

it's hard to remember i'm alive

and that the sky is endless

and this life is relentless

and that not everyone i love will love me back

and i'm made of the very breath of the stars

that's true

but the stars are already dead

and you said i was too

and now i believe you

(cjw)

it's been raining here so long
   and everyone i have ever loved  is gone
i'm alone,
      a flightless bird  
             with no song
                     or star to wish upon
it's been raining here so long
   i think i'm ready to be gone
(cjw)

She must've gotten tired
of slicing her wrists with razors
And setting fire to her skin
So she burned herself on lovers
And cut herself on friends
