These Are the Breadcrumbs of Your Lies

The body was not his, it was hers. He could never own it. But boy did he try.

 

Why the woman is a body not a mind is incomprehensible.

 

I dread the moment when I close my eyes because then I know I will soon see the unspeakable.

 

I remember I used to laugh a lot. Now it takes effort to even just smile.

 

Young and dumb was what we were but young and dumb does not forgive what you did.

 

It’s hard living with the knowledge that I cared so much for the person who has hurt me most in the world.

 

You took so much that now I am left void. I have holes punched in my heart, in my soul. How much will these stitches cost?

 

I don’t like air on my body because it reminds me too much of the times he would force me to take off my clothes.

 

I eat like you’re still watching me. Very little in the morning. Too much at night. Nothing on a sad day. Everything on a mad day. Can you leave my food alone?

 

For the moon has yet to see the stars, alone at night she weeps.

 

I was so in love it gives me a headache.

 

My mind is stuck on your radio station and I hear your comments and catchphrases. I’m looking for a mechanic who can fix this, any suggestions?

 

I am alive. I am walking. I am here. I am talking. I have made it this far so I can make it further.

 

I may not be a flower but someday I will bloom again.
