I’m the loneliest,
the onliest,
girl in the world.
I know you only just,
left.
I’m the loneliest,
the onliest,
girl in the world.
I know we’re only just,
friends.
I’m the loneliest,
the onliest,
girl in the world.
I know you’ll only just,
forget.
–S.
It’s the salt,
in the air,
your memory,
everywhere.
It’s on my tongue,
in my hair,
your memory,
everywhere.
It’s in my cells,
a part of every smell,
your memory,
everywhere.
It runs in my blood,
coats my lungs,
your memory,
everywhere.
–S.
Sigh a little,
cry a little,
die a little,
without you.
I lie a little,
to survive the middle,
without you.
I try a little,
to survive the middle,
without you.
I get high a little,
to survive the middle,
without you.
I sigh a little,
cry a little,
die a little,
without you.
–S.
White rose,
kiss on the nose,
emotionally naked, no clothes,
fell in love with hope,
ended up alone,
shop closed.
–S.
Poisonous, venomous, snake.
Gluttonous, all you do is take.
Villainous, killed us.
Nothing left to discuss,
Taught me that love is not enough.
–S.
Red, white, but mostly, just blue.
Heartbroken in Texas, trying to get over you.
Red, white, but mostly, just blue.
Heartbroken in Texas, Heartache Avenue.
Red, white, but mostly, just blue.
Heartbroken in Texas, Heartache’s new fool.
–S.
Everything’s bigger in Texas,
that’s what they say.
Even though we were reckless,
I still think about you today.
You never answered my message,
I threw away your necklace,
everything’s still bigger in Texas,
like getting over you.
–S.
The sun’s setting,
and I’m betting,
you’re working on forgetting,
me.
The sun’s setting,
and I’m sweating,
over letting it,
be.
–S.
You left me lonely in the lone star state.
Looking up at the sky, standing at the gate.
You left me lonely for you only in the lone star state.
Holding in a cry, and barely surviving the wait.
You left me lonely in the lone star state.
–S.
You broke me,
slowly,
left me in the lonely.
But,
I’m still,
holy.
–S.
The Messy Middle 🖤
