I cannot mourn for what I have not known.

Unconditional love isn't a free pass to hurt me.

Being a cold heartless spinster who loves no one is such hard work! I spend all this time spinning silk, and weaving it into intricate patterns, and catching hapless prey in my webs, and sinking my fangs into them, and yet no one ever appreciates my efforts!!! It’s so hard to be aro ::::(

I got warm so I stepped outside

You came over and said “You’re too drunk to drive”

I just wanted to dance

You were calling my ride

In the pouring rain I coulda swore

You said my name

“Are you crying”

You said “No I’m okay”

In the shadows, you grabbed my waist

And I just pretended it was okay

I don’t mind

being someone you need

But there’s a line

of people waiting to feed

I can’t hide

Behind our history

You’re not looking so kind

The way you’ve been looking at me

I don’t wanna be touched

I don’t wanna be stared at

This is all too much

But it’s all the same

You could hide it

If your really tried

But you’re so blinded

That you lost sight

We were behind it

Until you reminded me

You’re just another man

With dirty, dirty hands

-I.a.p

Sat on the edge, Restless little love

I’m hiding cigarettes at dawn

But you can smell them on my breath

When I kiss you in the morning

What can’t you say, restless little love

That no one has said before,

coming in or headed out the door

Please stay awake with me

Cuz if I fall asleep I’m scared I’ll never

Reach you again

How can I put your mind at rest

It’s like I’m not even near you

While I’m laying on your chest

Such a restless little love

Such a restless little love

-i.a.p

I thought, this is what grief reveals: that love is full of mistakes.

Mark the electrician has been here for five minutes and he’s already said “well that’s…weird” twice from the other room and frankly I’m afraid to ask.
