Reflections (3)

Folder: 
Reflections

 

 

I just want my quilts back
and I laugh
because you are still cold
so short with responses
as if I am a threat to your little paradise

 

But I don't want you.
I really don't.
I'll always love you, sure
and my heart still breaks sometimes
because of how I loved you

 

However, I would never drink from
a bottle that clearly says it's poison
and you are a loose cannon
aimed at the people you care about most

 

You're wired to fly off handles baby,

it's not your fault
it's not our fault that we fall in love with you
either

You had swagger

ambition
drive
long fingers

 

But I just want my quilts back
and the dissolvement papers
it's the last thing we have to do,

to finally be rid of one another

and I know how much you've been wanting that

okay

first! this si th best of the three in my opinion! the first one had some solid stuff and moments which i fet could be cut, this is what it needs to be!

 

second, you are a lose cannon aimed at those you loved most! LOVE this line! I wish every line was this line! 

 

third, I love the reasons you fal for her and how long fingers gets slipped in at the end, at the end of the day we can love a personality and the things we think a person are and still sex always plays so much into it, I love how the use of long fingers touches on that, hints that when things go wrong we always look back and try to convince ourselves that we didn't work and maybe we were just thinking we could cause we wee blinded by the sex.. or at least that's what I take from that!

 

forth, if she wanted to be over so bad she'd have given you the quilts a year ago...

 

fifth! I love you! 


Much Love

First: I love you back!

First: I love you back! Secondly: I agree they weren't my best and I actually have a few more I'll be adding to that folder when I have the time. Third: there's never enough time haha. And fourth: the return of the quilts wasn't about her not being ready to let it all go. It was simply I was so forgotten and so far from her thoughts/mind that it wasn't important enough. last but not least: I dont care anymore about that thank God. These are poems I wrote a long time ago and I wanted to share that raw heartache pain with you guys :)
