You                      and                       I 
We played throughout      body parts     panties               littered on the floor
chugging it down                                    flossing teeth with  crimes 
miss                  you                        just you
doubled up dance it up       screeches irk in snow under shoes
Laced up lube it up              you battered  my limbs           twist my arms    my ankles 
FINDING MYSELF RUNNING AROUND AND IGNORING THE V I T A L I T Y 
life
questions and twisted words of a nineteen year old        antsy      gather your bearings
Poet of mine drowning in words      unspoken       unwritten        unwinding 
dwindling                             waiting                                         behind dry tongues 
poking at sores hidden under hair on the scalp 
addicted to plucking dead                 ends
YOU SIT THERE SO CONCENTRATED WITH A PRETTY GIRL IN YOUR BED
Built up up     UP                                snuff it out out                      OUT
I have to leave soon               you have to always       have to come in         leaving it hanging there
right in front of me                  tightly held together  but     so                  d i s o r i e n t e d 
holding these papers that have your scribbles all over it             you wanted to draw a portrait
make it happen                           get a grip                                        FOOL 
You said it yourself you wouldn’t do it again                    look where you are 
you said it yourself you deserve the creamiest corn
DON’T DO IT                                     don’t do this to yourself               ladybird lady miss              you
