coves

i walk into my bedroom
crawl and climb
rise above
the things i wish not to step on
run across
deny
i love you i thought
i think, i still do
but not the same
this town is not the same
and i am not that girl
she gets you now
i smile and suck dry
wrap my arms around him
when i say goodbye
and return me home
so safe in his words
i think i just died
rest easy here old friend
i'll always be me.
