i can't stop asking questions
i don't want to know the answer to.
all the stupidest words in my vocabulary
riot against the roof of my mouth
begging me to let them fall out into the air.
her her her. tell me about her.
tell me you want her.
tell me she's better.
tell me she's not.
i don't know what i want but i know
the last thing i remember wanting was you.
it swallowed me whole.
you once swallowed my heart
just to cough it back up.
tell me you want me back.
tell me.
i swallow and swallow.
a sea of rocks
crowds my throat.
sometimes i feel a thousand pin pricks
on my tongue
from the pain of holding myself back.
leave me alone, goddamnit.
leave me alone.
