managing to elude the return policy does not mean I love you still
And it is exactly the non-specialness of today I wear on my back like a stained t-shirt
But I am made of fine silknon special
non sensical
un feared
doubt,
fuckopen heart's bleed
I'll repeat
an open heart will bleed.
I say again
because i know it rings trueAnd what I've managed, is to cheapen everything that makes me
and give away kisses like flyers
because if you can't have me, then
everyone can.always introduce yourself to me wih bared teeth
so I can guess your intention
always keep too much salt in the house
so I can blame it all on superstition
1 2 3
never fall in love with me.keep me in dark rooms and locked doors.
where I am the most beautiful, and can get away with being free
and you will never see.
