A One Night Stand


A one night stand










The tattoo on your back draws me in

The shade of your skin so foreign

The curve of your spine as we wind

Is all I can find love in


This love is enough for now but maybe tomorrow

It won't be as in sets the shame

My luck is beyond reason

To end up here with you

I wish I could find words for this fast love

I know it's just for now

But now is forever when you want it to be

When you leave I'm elated

It takes only a few moments to realise

It was all so fleeting and free

That we may never understand how to speak again

Once you share this with someone you can't hide

So they know you better than you do

And you don't like yourself

So of course they won't call

Instead you dream of when someone will

Instead you write your shame on paper

The Beginning

 As life dissapears My heart is ripped The shot isn't enough to save you My hands hold what you need But as it drips through my fingers I can't save you So instead I am broken You didn't know me but you broke me You weren't deserving But you died And this weight in my soul Will get lighter with time But for now I cry It drains It drips You quieten He gets louder I stare Hopeless This has nothing to do with me But here I am And so every ounce of sympathy I recieve I pass to you

Her (sneaky) Response

 I am broken My thoughts, my dreams and every expectation of my life has been completely shattered. You canme into my life and filled me with so much love and joy and possibility that I broke. Your light reflects on the mess that is me. And for the first time I am glittery and shiny, and I didn't have to try. Your warm glow wrecks me. But I'm more beautiful than before. It makes me wonder if I was even whole to start with.
