unpretty and cold like all of the others
a face that reflects like hate in the water
the dress floats on the surface like litter in summer
carp and old flowers that perfumed the late air
i sucked in my lungs and lived
not breathing, but leaving
detesting; grieving
wishing for better but giving up easy
a few pounds of metal between all my teeth
i gave up my faith and lived
i made the conscious decision to tell that id go
breathe in the green; vacuum the snow
ten in a handful; four fists in a row
the shapes tasted like chalk and you didnt say no
i bit down on those circles and lived
leaving letters and numbers to read while im gone
pressing half-moon shapes from my nails in my palms
i chewed down regret and breathed in what i want
in the middle of the night and at the end of my thoughts
i kicked over the chair and lived
a face that reflects like hate in the water
the dress floats on the surface like litter in summer
carp and old flowers that perfumed the late air
i sucked in my lungs and lived
not breathing, but leaving
detesting; grieving
wishing for better but giving up easy
a few pounds of metal between all my teeth
i gave up my faith and lived
i made the conscious decision to tell that id go
breathe in the green; vacuum the snow
ten in a handful; four fists in a row
the shapes tasted like chalk and you didnt say no
i bit down on those circles and lived
leaving letters and numbers to read while im gone
pressing half-moon shapes from my nails in my palms
i chewed down regret and breathed in what i want
in the middle of the night and at the end of my thoughts
i kicked over the chair and lived
Within your comforting arms
Nothing being said
Just listening to music
With your chin
Resting on my head
One arm across my neck
The other playing with my hair
Holding me close
It shows me that you care
Leaning up ageanist your chest
Listening to you breath
I feel completly safe
When you are holding me
