The words

Like a melody of chords

Played on a broken piano

That trickled out of her mouth

Like they were the only truth she knew

Still

They decide to visit me

In the hollows of my nights

While i shudder on bathroom floors

Or under shower streams

Mind circling

Around every person

Who's ever hurt me

And i remember

Everytime

These words

Send me running

To a girl

Who spends way too much

Of her time

Reassuring me

That i've never been

Anything less than okay to her

But still

Im mumbling

Apology

After

Apology

And

Begging her to run

Because god damn

How could those words

Come so easily from her

If they aren't true

How could she call me that

As if it's my own name

Assigned to me on a useless sheet of paper

If it isn't what i am

And i know that

The two of them are not

One

And

The same

But

If she considers me so

Than who's to say you won't as well
