She asked me why all I write about is sex and drugs. I didn't know how to answer.
i lay entwined in your sheets
and cover myself with ragged breathing,
hoping the words falling from your lips
will be the words that i've been needing.
...
when did your innocence shatter?
your fingers used to trip over my skin,
but now run up my thigh
so effortlessly.
...
Smeared and wasted,
Unmoving on the bathroom floor.
Grime and makeup under her nails
Because she tried to tear her mask off.
...
my stomach swells
and i feel pregnant
but it's only the bottle of water i drank.
then again, the brand is Life Water
...
'To whom it may concern,
It's still raining dirt outside my door.
The baby in the jar, I swear,
Gave me a wink and a grin.'
