Write The Words You Need To Say, Dumbass

The sound of your laugh is music I could not write. Only angels can.

I'm searching for you in a sea of pretty words. You terrify me.

I wish I wasn’t me, because me is something nobody will want.

I'm thinking about you, and if you think about the stars at night too.

I don't have to fly far for my wings to be scorched. I burn in darkness.

I want to be able to breathe the words "I'm okay." Speaking is toxic.

You don't want my words that sing your worth and beauty. So I hum its tune.

Your eyes are the hands that hold me down and keep me human, and wanting.

The rain is falling and rolling, and cascading off my hands, gently.

There are things I need to fix, to know, to create to care for myself.

I am positive I can never be what you need through the darkness.

Your imperfections are perfect, broken pieces my hands want to hold.

I don't want to say I miss you when you are here. I need you tonight.

Words I need to say never come easy enough or at the right time

Does the rain fall like the lies and words from your mouth? I am not drowning.

I’m tired of my self doubt getting in the way of learning to love you

I do not long for the touch needed by many. I want our quiet.
