Broken dishes in the slimy sink
They haven't been cleaned in awhile
but that's okay,
because I'm not eating much these days.
Wilting roses in their vast vases
They haven't been watered in so long
but that's okay,
because I don't need memories of you.
Shattered glass on the faded floor
The mess hasn't been swept up
but that's okay,
because the pieces aren't too much.
The unmade bed in my rottening room
It used to be our place
but that's okay,
because at night I have more space.
All the wounds you gave me
They still twist from pain inside
but that's okay,
because those I can easily hide.
My failing, fractured heart
It's barely beating against my chest
but that's okay,
because after you, it really needs to rest.
