i could only wish that the
corners of my room could keep
all my secrets and that the walls
wouldn’t shake from the weight

“

I absolved you of your accountability because I knew how important it was for you to not have any.

“

Perhaps out of desperation,
because this hurts and
all I want it to do
is anything but hurt.

“

you threw me into an alligator swamp
and you’re just pissed i managed to get out
alive.

“

You taste like nothing now.
My heart no longer feels heavy at the thought of you.
I don’t need to hold back tears whenever I see your name.
I don’t wait for a message that I know will never come.

“

If at any point you understood
The fire burrowed in my stare,
it should have given you answers
for all your questions about love.
