an ode to your mistake




Before You

i thought i knew about all the monsters under my bed 
playing deceit on my mind
of shadows lurking, witches bewitching.
The sacred unknown territory forbidden for good girls like me
-

With you

Pretty smile, piercing gaze,
butterflies and soft touches
retracing every crack in my skin
trying to relive my past.
Because even the devil feels like love
especially when he wants to fix you.

-

After you

He looked like heaven
felt like hell.
No amount of pills 
will ever make you
feel as alive the way he did.
And that's when you know you are fucked
because  the places he fixed
have split open again
