Seeing these black eyes and my green fingertips
They don't haunt me as much anymore
Sugar, sugar: They usually match my shadows
Perfectly dotted across the walls
[Like khaki eyeliner circling the corners of your eyes]
Baby, I never saw it coming:
B
A
C
K
S
T
A
B
B
I
N
G
never hurt this good before
[words hurt less than razorblades]
[sex] talk coming out of your crimson lips
&& perverse thoughts digging through my skin
[i told you once, i told you twice]
you're trying to [k i l l] me
ruining me with your insanity
playing connect the dots with my freckles
& stabbing through the last of them
[you always said they were the cutest thing about me]
darling darling: I was the best thing to step in
hooker boots & a business suit
[they help to pay the bills, but it can't buy me love anymore]
[darling, the only thing
C
U
T
E
about you was the thick matted hair against your face
as my silhouette repeated in patterns inside your eyes
echoing utter regret through your lips]
[darling, welcome to the loser line]
Author notes
Ha, this was fun to write. I used my ex boyfriend as an inspiration. He's such a sexual pussy. It's so funny. I'm so in love with my boy, he isn't anything like my ex. He's perfectly strange & unique.. and iloveloveloveit.
