i absolutely hate nights like these.

[anotherbetty]

there are many things that i do not know.
but that's not what this is here for.
let me fill you in on what i do know.

i can see through her eyes like crystal wine.
i hear her screaming at the sky.
do you think the sky yells back when she's in need?
i don't.
the air is thick in here, so cold, like alaska where a jewel was born.
tell me what i can do to fix this.
tell me where the glue is.
someone hand me some tape.
this is broken and i can't fix it.

do you know what i yelled at the sky, love?
i told her to hold me high and steal my pain.
forgive me love, for standing in the shadows.
forgive me love, for not knowing where to move.
