_{1.
its the start of a new month that i get to drag you through with me
attached to my ankles like an unwelcome shadow.
and i listen to music that has too much history trapped between each beat,
and i drink too much coffee and i shake shake shake and you dont move.

2.
i could have written an entire fucking series of 10,000 page novels
about all the shitty ways you made me feel, and all the excuses
i made for why i still loved you with all of my sad little heart.
but i will forever take how fucking furious you made me,
over the gutwrenching, soul swallowing alternative that i
s the tide forever threatening to drown me without you by my side.

3.
you would always patch me up at 3am when i would come back in
from a night of fighting people to distract from my inner demons,
and the alcohol would sting as it dripped down my cheeks but you
told me that it would clean it so it could heal.

i guess you were doing the same, but from the inside out.}
