Jade Aldine

by the beauty that doesn’t even exist

in the faults and lies of someone

who keeps apologizing

over and over

but if you want me to,

just say the word,

i will gladly do it again

again

and again

i wasn’t quite sure if you’re a natural at it

or yours was contagious

i was too deep in love that i didn’t even want to know what i deserved if that meant i had to let you go.

i used to write about you

every line

every word

i chose very carefully to make sure i meant exactly what i wrote

so that one day if i had the chance,

you would read and i’d be glad

to have your heart

melted by my art
