USED TO BE

Silence doesn't mean my heart won't beat,

words of scorn won't wear me thin.

I can choose to grow or rot,

I can choose.

LOVE HOUND

Love hound,

booze hound,

I'm always looking

for ways to do me in.

I cannot stand the way

you make me feel

all the fucking time.

You beat endlessly 

through my veins

and wrench the 

seams of my sick,

sad heart. 

\\

ILL THOUGHTS

Place your hand in mine,

let me trace the rhythm

of your eager pulse.

I know you crave the

corners of my mind,

don't be scared.
