Your sunken eyed girl

Picture
While we were together
You drew me
While we're apart
I write you


You scrawled song lyrics
Over my image
Saying you'll drag me down
Don't waste my time


Now that I don't
My words are my own
Attributable to no one else
And they're truer
Than any notes you could write or sing


If you drew
What I write
Would it be as pretty?
Or would you end up
The tattooed brute
Proportions askew?


Your sunken eyed girl
Romanticized me
Made me meek
Made me clamor for you
When I will never be or do those things


I was the drinks you drank
And kept drinking
You fell down stumbled
I was the blinks you blinked
And kept blinking
Made you humble


I am the world and now I know so
Lay down tremble
