if i've said it a thousand times
why did it feel foreign on my tongue just now?
i once said
it was easier to love you
than to like you
because love wasn't romantic back then.
when did i get so good at lying?
i spoke my heart into existence in my
head, and i believed.
if you've said it a thousand times
why did you forget to wish me a happy birthday?
not gonna lie
the 4am air is too empty
and i want to wear your hot skin as a blanket.
when did you get so good at lying?
you spoke your heart into existence in
mine, and i need you.
