For A Moment

The water pulsates over my body
As I stare at the white wall
My heart sleeping soundly in my chest
I snap out of my enchantment 
And continue gliding my hands over my body
To wash away my words for the day
My left hand wanders behind me
And there
I wash twice
For his words sometimes linger
I dip my head under the glistening stream
I let the heat race from my nose
Down to my navel
And then I think of you
The moments you stole from me
Right before
The moments I willingly gave to you
Remembering your head on my chest
Your breath on my nipples
Not in love
But neither without it
The echo of your lips
Still tingles the back of my neck
Suddenly your gone
I open my eyes
Still facing the white wall
The words circling the drain
And life pauses
Only for a moment


Until the sun rises again

Little

It’s like I wasn’t even there
When you tore me apart
I drifted so far away
I became so lost
The more you broke my heart
The smaller I became
The words you threw at me
The self worth you stripped away
Who would have even known
Bruises shouldn’t com from love
You wore me down until
I was just so little
I got older
But never really grew
Your presence slowly became
An echo of a memory
Abandoned
Disowned
You left me all alone
How much love
Do you really need
When you’re just so little
The darkness of the corner
Never felt so warm
Who needs a crying shoulder
When have got my own
Why even bother walking
When I can crawl just fine
No need to hold me in your arms
I’ve got two of mine
Could you even find me
Who could ever find me
In this world when I’m this little
Another day goes by
I’ve learned to love myself
Like the love you gave
It’s easy to get through this life
And never feel too big
When you’re just do little
I’ll always be so little

You’ll always be so fucking little
