do you surrender
400 milligrams on your prescription pad
do you remember
december and the plans we had
this would be easy if i could just up and hate you
but i was there too, once
suicidal and stupid
caught in a bullpen between your hope and self-loathing
either wishing my skin ripped off or to take off your clothing
while knowing
you're loving ulcers
not me
my impulsive coffee bingeing
is this my skin or just a letter between us
two children of venus
wishing for pills to complete us
there's a light you'll never know until it goes out
your hands before you groping blindly for your lighthouse
up the stairs, beneath the pictures of your family
a single match to strike the past that you're abandoning
i'm here if you let me be
i needed arms like air to breath
when i was stuck in therapy
fucking and drinking my way to sympathy
do you surrender
serotonin leaking from your every pore
do you remember
the person that we miss
and life you're fighting for
