any unwanted silhouette

My bones bleed silver

As any unwanted silhouette would

You called just to say you’re sorry

Just to say you’re not in the mood

It’s raining again on everything I once loved.

Feel the weight of the drag I take

From a cigarette that I promised you I wouldn’t smoke.

Where has all the blood gone?

Dried up from comparing it to water.

It’s a common story of love and betrayal

Why don’t we rewind our lives into something less gruesome

This is the oldest my body has ever felt

Let us drown in our mistakes tonight

In hopes that by morning the sun will dry them away

Wow. Very deep.
I loved every word.
I wish I had more to say, but you said it all very well.
