And to think she knew love

And to think she knew love

She dipped her toes into your soul

And she came back drowning,

Gasping for the breaths you

Stole from her lungs; replaced

With the smoke of her

Bones you burned in the

Carcass of a person who only

Wanted to love something

That was never theirs.

And to think she knew love

When she just wanted you to

Recognize her as whole.
