I don’t think you hear
me screaming on the inside..
Tearing up every organ..
Just for you to glance at me.
And every shred of every
piece of me is for you
for everything you’ve done
for/to me.
Inhale me..
And if you would, place your
palms on my abdomen and
crack me in half for all your
false senses of security.
Dig a screw driver into my ovaries..
For each time they’ve done you wrong..
And it can’t always be right.
Please, if you don’t mind,
kiss my cheeks with razors
and tell me how great I am..
Just one more time..
Carve your initials in my eyelids
with broken glass..
Empty every ounce of me into
body bag armor..
Stick some syringes in my arms and
leave me aiming for the stars
because that’s all I’ve ever done.
I can’t recall a time I’ve actually
shot for them..
But, baby.. That’s all there is.
Hope.
And I’ve lost mine, sweet boy..
Push me away again
it’s all you’ve ever done
kiss me good bye one more time
to make up for it...
You can’t pull me back this time, baby.
