I shouldn't have left
Behind all those feelings
Stored in a box
Somewhere under the floorboards
Of the house where you
Used to spend your days
Lying with me in bed with
Beating, bursting hearts
Breaking, bleeding into
your tears as I left and
I wanted to kiss them away
But on my lips was poison
Aimed to kill you with
Venemous words and
A tongue with a razor
Edge ready to cut
You in pieces and
You still forgave me
But its not me because
I have trouble forgetting
Drowning in the blanket of
Darkness that comes
Crashing down around
Me when I'm alone
I shouldn't have left, I
Want to look into that
Box of memories but
That house burned to the ground
And all that remains are
Your shattered memories
And my tainted lips bearing
Blackened promises falling
Away into the nothingness
That lingers between us
Now as I lie beside
You in bed with an
Ocean of lies between
Our mangled bodies, I
Want to apologize and
Repent for my sins but
I'll never get that
Satisfactory feeling because
You've already forgiven me and
I'm left to bleed all over your floor
Begging you to just hurt me
Just so I know I can feel
So I can know how you felt
That day I left you in flames
Author notes
Don't take this seriously, guys. Its not like I'm emo or anything. I'm actually pretty happy with my life, and I harbor no major regrets, so please, don't bombard me with "omg lyk r u ok?" 'cause, I'm really fine.
