Codependent, Vol I

august

you grabbed my cheeks and asked

"can i kiss you?"

and then smiled

i nodded, didn't really know

if it was a dream or not

you smelt like cheap cigarettes, pills and booze

i still remember your forest eyes

The way you stared at my lips, waiting

you were my first and only

The world didn't really understand

how someone like you, could love someone like me

your hands were warm

mines cold

your eyes were bright

mines gone

your voice, oozing with honey

mine, raspy and lost

but I was yours, laying on your chest

listening to every breath you'd take

mindlessly running my fingers through your hair

combing your curls between my hands

you stole my heart, but that's ok

i liked your soul from the very first day

but you're not here anymore

you're not here to tell me sweet lies, melting in your mouth

"everything will be fine"

take me back in august, when we were in love

when your eyes could still find mine,

and our hands weren't cold

when we were carefree and bold

and my heart was still made out of mold

it was love, i'm sure of it

there's no other way to describe it

i'm still yours, i'm still burning to touch your lips

to taste them, please

come back to me

you were my first and only
