as soon as your eyes locked with mine i knew there was
no chance of me coming out of this alive.
find what you love and let it kill you.
i thought i found him and loved him
but i didn't. i lost him.
and i am still alive.
but what doesn't kill you
leaves scars.
on your heart, and your hands,
and on your spine where he used to trace his fingers
what doesn't kill you
leaves your lungs ruined,
and full of dying flowers.
what doesn't kill you,
dries out all your tears,
leaves you awake at 4 in the morning
laying on the shower floor.
wishing you weren't alive.
find what you love and let it kill you.
everything is going to kill you,
but darling,
please let it be by love.
a lover
the love of your life.
love what you love so much
that it makes you feel alive
and then love it so much
that it kills you.
i've had my hours on the shower floor.
the scars on my skin
and the stains on my soul
are un countable.
its time for me to
find what i love and let it kill me.
...what a marvelous way to die.

ReplyDeleteI like how this was about death, but not really. This was about heartbreak, which is worse sometimes.
