Pick.

You don’t get to break my heart
& then take your pick of the pieces.

Broken.

If you were looking to break me,
I’m sorry to break it to you:
I’m already broken;
Broken in.
Broken down.
Broken apart.

We Are All Just Drowning In Drought

For weeks I couldn’t cry.
I remember thinking: I must be broken.
But then some nights I couldn’t stop.
I remember thinking: I must be broken.
& I just wonder:
would you rather die by drowning or drought?
Because most days I can’t tell the difference.

Save.

 

Sometimes you just have to break your own heart.
Sometimes you have to be the one to save yourself.
