I remember that night you pulled him off of me
I thought…
I thought maybe I'd never seen anything
Anything
As beautiful as you
Just the way you moved
All furious and lovely and wild
I remember the way his blood speckled the carpet
And there were lights flashing
Red and blue and blinding
Casting stark shadows against the snow
And you were barefoot
They had to restrain you
When they arrested him
You'd already broken his wrist
But I think you wanted to kill him
I think they thought that, too
I remember kissing your knuckles
Because he'd split your lip
And I couldn't kiss you on the mouth
We took you to the hospital afterward
And they stitched you up
You fell asleep on my shoulder on the car ride back
I kissed the top of your head
And I told you I loved you
But before you nodded off—
Do you remember?
You made me promise
Promise me, baby girl,
That I wouldn't leave your side
Stay with me
You said you'd keep me safe
Always
I thought…
I thought maybe I'd never seen anything
Anything
As beautiful as you
Just the way you moved
All furious and lovely and wild
I remember the way his blood speckled the carpet
And there were lights flashing
Red and blue and blinding
Casting stark shadows against the snow
And you were barefoot
They had to restrain you
When they arrested him
You'd already broken his wrist
But I think you wanted to kill him
I think they thought that, too
I remember kissing your knuckles
Because he'd split your lip
And I couldn't kiss you on the mouth
We took you to the hospital afterward
And they stitched you up
You fell asleep on my shoulder on the car ride back
I kissed the top of your head
And I told you I loved you
But before you nodded off—
Do you remember?
You made me promise
Promise me, baby girl,
That I wouldn't leave your side
Stay with me

got my mama
a golden needle,
but
she hid it
in the hay -
told me
the sweet things in life
are worth looking for
over
and over
again
'til your eyes just
can't see
anymore.

Don't call me beautiful.
This isn't some over the counter form of self-deprecation. It's truth in a full-informed prescription. Maybe you've figured this out by now and I'm wasting my words telling you, but darling, I'm an acidic mess and I promise I'll burn holes through your best intentions. Read this as the label marked "warning." Or maybe I'm a battlefield and honestly, blow by blow, you're killing me. But usually, I'm simply a one-way road that dead-ends at your doorstep and I'm crashing into you.
I swear we do the worst things to each other in the worst and most nonsensical ways.
Don't pretend I'm clever.
I'm just recycled words fro

You say: Hi
I interpret: I'm acknowledging your existence.
I respond: Heyy :)
I mean: I love acknowledging yours.
You ask me: What are you doing later ?
I tell you: nothing.
You say: same.
I say: Let's do nothing together,
and you say okay.

Emotional indeed - you made me first shake my fists in agreement with your guardian angel and then smile because of the sweetness at the end - You are an artist who touches peoples hearts and not only that - be assured that if there would ever be someone trying to hurt you and your fans would be nearby, you would not have anything to be afraid of - with your words, you create bonds between poeple who never saw each other. Awesome work!
