shake it off

When I go to shake I slip
There yelling voices are forcing my own thoughts out and plugging there’s in
Ripping my heart out
“Fight to the finish”
I’ve lost all will to raise my fist
There words are wilting my flowers, turning my rainbow black and white
I feel their eyes burning holes in my back-their fingers lingering
I see your back, walking just a few inches ahead of me
Can’t I deeply inhale your sent just one more time?
You used to love seeing me get high off your kisses, never the less your eyes
My eyes are glued
My sole ignites
I bite my lip-trying to keep my legs from buckling
I’m giving into this sad temptation
I hate how my fingers are clawing my books
My mind wonders about how I felt when I had my head resting on your chest
But I “have to let him go”
But why…Because it’s wrong to have emotions, wrong to love someone that treated you better than you treat yourself?
I have his name in my wrist for a reason
But loving you is like tossing a rose down a well and waiting to hear the splash.
