Butterflies
He sliced open my gut and let them all escape. Flying from my open wound gone without a trace. All thats left, the wings of dust, the ones that didn't make it. Now when I kiss his waiting lips, all I can do is fake it.
Chamomile Tea
It was late, my eyes still hadn't closed like they should have. I could feel his warmth beside me yet I'd never felt so cold as I watched the shadows change across the celling.

Mr Gluttony
In the eye of the storm, In the belly of the beast, You sat at my table, You had food to eat, I stood there politely, I watched with blue eyes, You spat it back at me, Oh what a surprise, Now back in the kitchen, I made something else, Laid it before you, Can't … Continue reading Mr Gluttony

Over
I lay on my back, the smell of red wine still vivid. I cross my arms over my face as I let out the last of my tears. My heavy beating heart, the pulsing in my ears. My phone on my stomach, chat still open. I let out a laugh that only tears could create. … Continue reading Over
