Literature Text

The concrete stables your fluttering wishes
But I need to feel the caress of a thousand green blades
I'd liked how my feet got dirtier that way

We share each other in everything
in cigarettes
in secrets
in smoothies
and scars
But I have to steal
kisses with my eyes

You've never been fluorescent
your beating heart has turned the stars to tears
too many times to count
It doesn't do any good to lie to the sky.

I know you didn't try
You just took my heart
because it was the only thing worth taking
The cd you bought on sale.
(It's not your fault.)
I think I've fallen for everyone
who couldn't love me back.
Here I am being pathetic once again. Nothing's changed. That's just a lie I told myself.

I'm sorry.
I can't stop.
