normals childhoods don’t exist. parents break up. dogs die. houses burn. friends betray. money runs out.
i saw an entire life with you as soon as we met.
i am too full of life for this town. far too ambitious and far too wise. my dreams can’t materialize here.
so far this year, the only thing i’ve been is a disservice to the people around me. most days i’m too selfish to get out of bed.
what would’ve happend, if i didn’t walk into that bar? if i didn’t see your face? if you didn’t steal glances from across the room all night? if you didn’t walk up to me with your crooked smirk? if you didnt leave to get a rose from the convenience store 3 blocks down? if you didn’t ruin my life?
i know that you’re not wasting time stuck in an endless cycle. i know you clawed your way out.
if you hurt me, i’ll walk away as easy as i walked in.
pick what you want. i don’t even care if it’s me. please just choose. you know the back and forth is breaking me.
i know that you love me. it’s palpable.
i am a skeleton walking, for you have stolen my heart.
