We don’t talk about it.
We don’t talk about it at all.
That night I scratched lightening bolts into your back , shook so hard I thought winter was leaking in from the window. You curled towards me in your sleep , heart as loud as a drum line.
Now….
We are quiet as headstones.
I didn’t know all the difference, morning brings.. 💔
Theres two things in this life that can turn you into a monster. I found it and it found me. Innocence doesn’t fade, it rots. Go soft in the middle like a peach left too long. First it’s sweet then it makes you sick. Then it makes you hungry for something bad. Something real bad. Something that could swallow you whole. It was sweet, I was sweet. I was so sweet , too sweet and sweet don’t save you. It sits there and rots in your hands. I was black this year , that was the year I stopped crying, started watching, started listening. I watched your mannerisms, I waited for the snap beneath your breath. There’s something off about you, off about you. There’s something off about you. Your leather hands slid down my back it don’t feel wrong but I know it don’t feel right. There’s pink on everything but there’s nothing light in me anymore. There’s something off about you.

"You can tell me everything, i'll be here for you"
No you won’t.
You’ll use it against me later.. 🖕🏻
I wanted to be loved, but not like this.
Not like a lighthouse watching ships, that never dock.💔
Happiness scares me because there is always a price to pay afterwards. ..
Nobody heard her, the dead woman,
But still she lay moaning:
I was much further out than you thought
And not waving but drowning.
Loving me is like watering a dead flower…
