Them

You say you'll never be able to forgive yourself

You say you hate what you did

My heart burns like hot Cheetos at 1 am because I couldn't sleep and I decided I needed to eat

Because eating helps me forget the pain

The brown eyes the words how it all happened

I don't know if I believe you're sorry

I don't know anything

A numbness spreads across my body and I don't know what I am supposed to do

Should I intertwine with the same guy who left me back and blue

Spite tends to uproot from your stomach and spill over

Your eyes I can only imagine cried for you

Because you knew it was wrong what you did

But you didn't know the pain you put me in

And I don't know who I am

And I don't know if I want to forgive

I built up a trust that you tore down with the help of others

With the help of a girl who looked like coal

With the help of a girl who wore her mothers stains

With the help of a girl you said you loved

But I don't believe you didn't mean

What you said

Because you cannot lie about a love

You do not build up a person

With a lie

Because maybe they loved you too

And maybe they got lost in your eyes, did you know they're beautifully blue?

And they get lost in your laugh, did you, know how amazing your smile is?

They got lost in you,

And they believed you got lost in them, too,

Sometimes you need to realize they hurt too?
