August
July 25, 2010
Its ok to flirt
Flirting is meaningless
No commitment
No obligations
No expectations
Something to play with
Oh honey, that's us
August my lover
I named her
August
August owns the scars
The suicides
They are August
Oh August lover
I still flirt with her
And what she represents
I'll string her along
Until I'm dead and gone

trying to commit suicide and cutting turned into almost a friendly relationship if that makes sense. it always happened in August. I decided to name it august when i was at the cemetary for my grandparents... in august.
