amidst the tent poles

the cooking pans

the empty bottles and the garbage

i found your black tube top

and the smell of your lost love

ill just hate myself instead

because i could never say those words

to someone i love

i will always remember how you made me feel

in those last moments,

the last moment

when you never looked back.

I woke up with an emptiness greater than before i met you,

Not even this sadness can touch the edges of the void that you created,

Fuck.

the flowers are dead

the ashtray is full

the air conditioner has leaked everywhere

and the fruit flies have made homes in the empty beer bottles

what a beautiful hungover hell

thank you for letting me remember love

and for reminding me

to avoid it at all costs

how beautiful our tempers

and tragic the repercussions,

all is lost before

 never be forgotten,

but for the inked scratches on our skin

to remind us,

that love,

can be hell .

i am drowning

in a sea of you

I know this will never be again

this is the last time i will hold you

i can steal one more kiss

and then into the ocean of rage

the depth of pain

it shall overcome me

a regretful sea

to drown
