Reassurance

My darling, Your love is selfish in the same way that A labourer will work hard to earn, Their position angers them like no other But they will never leave In order to keep safe Knowing if they’re removed, they can’t survive. My darling, My love is selfish in the same way As my love […]

Left

You used to remember my favourite colour The way I like my cupcakes Or how I always wanted to travel. My surname mixed with my first was a great liking of yours I’m sure at one point you found yours to be my last even better. Please leave me Cause I must leave you now […]

Facial expressions

Full lips Cat eyes Cheekbones high like the time he and I were at our peak I hate myself Aesthetically pleasing Your eyes plead for a kiss And you don’t get it Your love has faded You can’t read me You need me I need Air

I wouldn’t have wanted to know when you’d leave

I’m glad we can’t see the future. I don’t want to know when you’ll fall in love with a women less violent. Less cranky. She won’t have aggressive secrets or a false ego to cover up hate. You will bring her home and keep her safe and I will go back to dirty talking temporary […]
