We're both a whisper
Away from screaming the truth.
Let me talk to you.
//
You were out of your
mind. Now you're out of mine. See,
I have erased you.
//
Once broke a heart. Twice.
And then a third. Now see; I
break my own daily.
//
As if I were drunk,
I attempt to behave nor-
mally around you.
//
I dissect guys like
a frog in a lab. And I
see right through them all.
//
They make it seem so
effortless. Human inter-
action. Teach me how.
//
It’s one of those things
you don’t realize you needed
until it is gone.
//
I think I acci-
dentally fell in love with
my own misery.
