i can't stop thinking about you
vandalized my rib cage and
kissed the walls of my staircase
you lit up the night sky
so i
naturally
naturally
naturally
let you fly
your bones sewn to feather
wings of fur and leaves and leather
swollen bodies
stolen hearts
guilty feelings
passionate thoughts
dripping blood you leave a trail
dripping blood you cast a spell
you stole the flame
i remembered your name
i used the brush
to paint the lust
your lips breathe smoke and secrecy
so you
unwillingly
unwillingly
unwillingly
let me sleep
you woke up the sleeping sky
so i
regrettably
regrettably
regrettably
let you fly
your bones sewn to feather
wings of fur and leaves and leather
swollen bodies
stolen hearts
guilty feelings
passionate thoughts
dripping blood you leave a trail
dripping blood you cast a spell

we were just
children
holding hands
to hang on
and our bodies are
destructive
but isolation
feels wrong
although our room is a closet
we feel like we belong
but i am not yours
and you are not mine
i'm sorry i forget that sometimes
i'm sorry i forget that sometimes
i can feel your guilt
fill your temper
i know that we both can
persuade the other
but when you blow too hard
i become nothing
but the silence is a scar
from before i heard you sing
but i am not yours
and you are not mine
i'm sorry i forget that sometimes
i'm sorry i forget that sometimes
i'll put away my last breath
before you come home
and if it's not too late
i'll tell you
that i'm happy
and you're not alone

my only moon

i want to
evolve into
a loving force
your favorite chords
i want to
become like you
are my only moon
suffocate the light
but your strength
is not my curse
it's a love so pure
in this ugly world
never goodnight
suffocate the light
you are my moon
but my water is so dirty
i can't let go of anything...

i walk
with your blessing like a curse
i bike around until my stomach hurts
sitting on a curb
rotting in the dirt
you love
to plant my photograph
i'm just a picture of my past
in your milky eyes
i'm the wildflower that you killed that night
your wisdom is a crystal
a charming manipulation
a privileged creation
but i'll
holy my own hand
and won't
burn every bridge
just because i can
i watch
as you climb a tree
sitting patiently
your tireless flame
conquers everything
crying
in the elevator
your violence and my silence
harmonize
as i descend
so you can be alone with him
again
your wisdom is a crystal
a charming manipulation
a privileged creation
but i'll
holy my own hand
and won't
burn every bridge
just because i can.

our hands are colors when they break now
and the pile is smiling at me break down
and i can't bear it alone
alone bear swear you won't
ask me to leave
but i want to leave
more than anything
and our hair can conquer being obvious
cuz misery is my face
and it is hideous
and i can't bear it alone
alone bear swear you won't
ask me to leave
but i want to leave
more than anything
