I've been piling up your offenses, bullet after bullet, for so long, you might as well add in the nail to my coffin

It isn't fair how easily you play with my heart.
Maybe I give you too less credit, excusing your actions with ingorance, as if you weren't one to think beyond norms as I did.
But I guess it hurts less, believing in accidents over intentional hurt.

From a best friend to a one night stand,
A tale so often told but I didn't understand

It feels a crime to wish to be desired; to be loved so deeply as the poets rhyme in their verse...

Now I flip through that very book, my fingers tracing over that single string of words.
"I dont't know why I thought we would ever work."

I was never one to believe in silly superstition, but when you asked me to define us by the first line from a random page of the book upon my lap, I humoured you. I even laughed with you at it's silliness.

A Christmas Poem

At Christmas little children sing and merry bells jingle,
The cold winter air makes our hands and faces tingle
And happy families go to church and cheerily they mingle
And the whole business is unbelievably dreadful, if you're single.

When I first met you
I remembered you
from a hundred different dreams and there you were
for me to love
all over again
for the very first time.

[ATTICUS @atticuspoetry]

I feel
like girls who drink whiskey tell
good stories.

Do not fall in love with me for I will break your heart long before you realize you were going to break mine.

True art
comes
from flying
with the madness so close
you burn
your eyelashes.
