After abuse the words
"I love you"
Mean everything
"I hate you"
Is associated with.
It no longer means protection
It means advantage
It means an attempt to manipulate
An attempt to burn you down
Just like the last one
After abuse the words
"I love you"
Rip you up from deep in your stomach
And leave you begging
"Not again"
After abuse
The smell of flowers
Is bitter and rotted
Like the roots under your
Rib cage,
linking everything together
Just to shatter
In rage.
I came
to rescue you
And you came
To burn me too.
