Exhaustion

Baby, I can’t sleep
Come here and please me until
I pass out with exhaustion.
You make me pull out my hair
You put a lump in my throat
So that I choke-sob during the ride home.
I need to return the favor
For all those mistakes of yours I made.
Call my ribs fat.
Feed my skinny ideology.
Work me to the point of us doing that activity
That is so exhausting

Excuses

With my eyes closed
I see excuses behind my eyelids
And feel their necessity inside me.
This is safe
This is us.
Two fingers caressing
Make two lips swell
They can’t hold back this flood
But this is safe
This is us.
Don’t want to hurt anyone
Except for myself
That’s why I’m crying for more destruction.
This is safe
This is us.
I’m smiling so that you trust my exit
Now I’m crying in hopes that your love
Won’t be a ghost lost within me.
This is over (and done with)
Even for me
I did this for us
Because I don’t know how to save you from myself

White Walls

Thank God these walls were painted white
For who knows what I would have done otherwise
In my pitch-black life
