i can see your teeth from here,
the way your skin bends,
i can see your heart from here,
how much i hate it.
you've got colored lines across your back,
sunken into your skin,
and i tear it apart,
i tear you apart,
those words were never meant for you,
i told you what you didn't want to hear.
you're hardly shown,
and i imagine you walking across the sidewalk,
as i'm sitting on the porch
as i feel his arm across my ribs,
and i imagine your smile, or the look you'd give me,
the way you turned your back so easily,
how was it so easy?
ten years went by too quickly
and it felt like nothing,
the missing years in between us,
but i finally cracked,
i know it's time that will make you fade,
you'll fade away from my mind,
my teeth,
and i'll stop imaging you on the street
and i'll stop wanting to hurt you back,
you'll be gone.
