snippets of poems (:

Put me in parentheses so you can imply us when you mention the past

But ignore the brackets to keep your pride


Treat me like cancer, ignore the illness

Hide the intimate details, cover the nights in lies

Pretend our story wont taint your blood as I keep you up tonight

Bandage the wounds,  though the scars will never fade


The print stained in the passenger seat of your SUV

The images ingrained in your deranged mind

Addicted to my touch and attention

Whilst you continue to lie about how you'd fallen
