Kissing skeletal flawless dreams,
&& blowing t r a d g e d y perfection scars across the abused rubber band sky;;
I sat the bottle of whiskey down in my heart;; (and vomitted up my love for you)
With every bone you f.r.a.c.t.u.r.e.d.::
//you told me I was beautiful;;
the mascara bleeding from my eyes in dainty mutilated lines.
I swallowed those razorblade lies to impress you;;
gagging as they slit my esophagus into pretty rainbow scars.
S k i n n y amnesia memories;;
I tripped over your fairy tale dispair;;
and into "B.a.d.G.i.r.l." vodka mode\\
cradling the shattered glitter stars in my arms;;
[[[touching your forehead with my frozen fingers]]
I cried bloody gold bits out of my eyes;;
burning skin as they melted to my mouth and rested above my lips;;
gently gagging myself and chanting that my poking bones were [g o r g e o u s]
&&
You sat in the corner of the junkies alley,
laughing as the switchblades tore off your skin,
and peeled back your eyes to show your true colors.
"Oh baby, do you know what it's like to be scared?"
(Because of you;; I do)
I threw up my insides,
leaning over the side railing and gently pushing your face out of my mind.
Safety pin holes in the fingers crossed behind my back;;
I stabbed myself for every time that I told you [ I l o v e d y o u]
Hate burning beneath these [sugar glossed] eyes,
like red saucers floating in a pool of liquid lust;;
you broke this paper doll to
b i t s
{&& help me reclaim the pieces}
