As if you were on fire from within.
The moon lives in the lining of your skin.
Love breaks my bones and I laugh.
Cautiously, I allowed
myself to feel good
at times.
I found moments of
peace in cheap
rooms
just staring at the
knobs of some
dresser
or listening to the
rain in the
dark.
The less I needed
the better I
felt.
Sometimes people hurt more than they can handle… And sometimes they don’t know how to ask for help. They’re so caught up in their own pain, they end up hurting everyone around them.
Books don’t offer real escape, but they can stop a mind scratching itself raw.
