I fell in love with you because you told me I was a lilac sky when I was merrily just a rose in a garden of chaos. I fell in love with you because when I told you I was okay and I didn't need you to come over you were here in 5 minutes and you said I was prettier than any night sky or constellation when I really didn't compare and you told me you were persuasive and I didn't believe you until I realized all the things you told me were bullshit. I only really started loving you when you kissed my scars and told me I was beautiful. Then one day you stopped calling and I started smoking because it was the only thing that stopped me from shaking. Two weeks later you showed up at my door and told me loving me was a mistake and that was the day I promised myself I'd stop writing fucking poems about you.
