inner workings

After awhile,

you learn the difference

between kisses by the sea

and kisses in the back of his truck.

After awhile,

you learn that

the man who f**ks you

won't ever love you.

In the cold of darkness,

holding on

to what you have left

you make promises

you won't ever keep.

You yell at shadows

wishing that they were him.

Crying lonely tears.

Craving his touch,

But knowing alone is better.

Somehow you learn.

And make the vows

knowing you will

break them.

Cursing him

because he weakens you.

Wanting him because

he knows

what you are

and still returns.

I wrote this while staring in my bedroom mirror one night, gazing at what I had become.
