YOU CAN TALK ABOUT IT BEING FOR THE BEST


learning lessons
the hard way,

falling
so out of love with yourself
that you feel like
you deserve mistreatment.

it's easier in the long run
fixing someone else
then labeling it "love".

the way a price machine
remains at .89 cents
and you tag a miles worth
of soup cans the same.

it's comforting though isn't it?

acknowledging faults
while living them.

pocketing your down falls
then pretending to be surprised
when that pair of jeans goes on again.

i look at the things
that got me here
and open my heart to idiocy.

raising a glass to pain
i say goodbye to loving
what destroys me.

the best thing about the future
is that it always starts tomorrow
