hold me down

and from below the corner of my eye

I see the life I once loved

and the person I once knew

but it's just not us

anymore

the water's running wild

and I can't stop moving forward

there's no such thing as

unconventional 

lovers

there's no such thing as

mistakes

on purpose

there's this glitter in your eyelids

and mouths taste sour
forgetting is betting
wounds won't heal by the hour

from the corner of my eye
you're slipping away
grabbing me from my chest
and pulling down

down

but not for long

I'm not your stray dog no more

I wasted all this time
all my future
half a year
precious time
for someone
who doesn't care
and for someone
who doesn't understand
