terrible poetry
everything is broken
and there’s no going back
all there is is nothing
and we’re all alone
There’s nothing we can do here
no mistakes we can mend
there’s no going back
and no going forward
They’d call this a fresh start

Mix-tape
Listening to breakup songs
can only help so much
when we’re on random
and no one needs to say they’re sorry
because this time
it’s no one’s fault
and everyone’s fault

being who we are
but in the morning light
