Another dose of your mother's medicine
another line thru your nose to your head again
another day you loved and got thrown away
another day, another pain, another wonder
"why does love have to hurt this way?"
Little brother
she wasn't a lover
you went in like prince charming
and what you learned was
alarming-
Sirens go off in your brain
I know,
nothing
nothing
nothing
feels like it will ever be okay.
But if I could teach you anything,
it's to let it go
leave her stuck within her own,
as she's not ready to make your
heart
home;
and love, anyway.
Love the ways
that just so made
you who you are today.
