You’re the 11:11 that rang true.
Wishing on you
if there is a god
i have lost all faith
he has laid temptation before me
and ripped it from my hands
he gave you those eyes
to capture my soul
let you walk away
my everything still in your arms
he left me a shell
a human mould
expects me to wait
for the next one to fill me
if there is a god
they say he only gives what you can handle
then why have i been tired
for all nineteen years
i do not have any strength
my arms are bone
covered in a thin epidermal layer
all i can do is lay on the ground
willing it to let me drown
allow my flesh to become one
with the earth i was spawned from

You weren’t worthy of me (pt. 1)
Be my skin,
be my bones.
Be the only thing I ever did know.
Part of a work in progress
The kind of girl who drives 30 miles over the limit when she’s alone, and 10 under when you’re there.
You’re the sweetest thing in this world
“Back then all I wanted to be was yours.”
They asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up
I look into my morning coffee and think, the only thing darker was the look in your eyes, the reflection of your soul, when you looked at me.

Don’t get too close. This is a wild fire that lives to burn.
Venus de Roux
Sometimes I imagine I’m a tiger in a circus cage. Threatened with whips and chains to perform tricks for your enjoyment. But could you really blame me if I let my wild free?
It’s a ticking time bomb baby
Aristotle believed that one thing was intrinsic to another. And you can’t explain one while disregarding the other. Maybe that’s why you’re the air I need to live. Without you I can’t exist.
