i saw my future
in the ashes of your cigarette,
sitting at the bar,
bottles shine with last nights regret.

you found my heart,
hiding in your curtains,
my clothes were on your floor,
my pulse, so discerning.

they found my body,
laying on a stage,
words on my chest,
and a spotlight on my face...

it was crooked.

been thinking about you,
how can you sleep,
these people aren't your friends,
they'd pay to kiss your feet,
what wouldd you care,
when i'm not there,
been thinking about you.

inside my skin,
the silence within,
fault lines
filled with white lies,
waiting to sink again.

"That shirt makes you look skinny." kindergarten girl

love,

as my past comes crashing into my present,
the music in the background sounds
like cars colliding,
the twisted metal and flailing arms,
you can't help but watch.

so many hearts and too many keys ( Read more... )
