Why does the heat of your body
Affect the size of your heart?
——————
I told you to go
All too many times before
Because the door is closer than changing
and silence is better than love
—————-
Does forgetting require rewriting?
————
You said
No one
Gives you
Butterflies anymore
I asked
Where did they all go?
———
What am I but just a regret
You couldn't quite forget or shake off
What am I but a loose end you couldn't quite tie up?
———-
I thought of sadness as a inch
While depression felt like a mile
Neither, I can resist
———
When will I lay at the feet of oblivion
and let it decide what to do with me
———-
I've given up on lasting goodbye
For my brother said he was getting a headache
———
I can turn a room into nightmare
If I stay in it long enough
For my heart to stop beating,
for my lungs to stop needing
air
Lol I didn't realize till after reading these all together how depressing they are
