Toxicated Thorns

You were standing over there,
I grabbed your gaze,
You were hiding your smile
But I saw it anyways.

Every breathe of yours
evaluated into a poem,
It's not a tragedy,
It's a lovely fantasy...

But what is with that girl?
Your friend kept screaming about!
No hate but,
She's no meat, she's just bones.
I'm the one prettier, just so you know.
You might love her now
But you loved me first!

And I remember when you grabbed
my hand, as if it's your own,
I remember when you used to
light me up, when I'm down,
You might get away with this,
But I can't...

Because of the tragic breakdowns,
All those days when I was love-lorn,
Pretend that I grew petals
When I grew toxicated thorns...
