If I could

I would take that smile
And inject it directly into
My blood stream


My parents warned me
About drugs in baggies
Sold on the street
But never the ones
With teeth
And a heart beat


I’m the mistake your parents told you about
Always on the run
Full of new ideas and glass dreams
In love with being alone
Cold hands big lies
Searching for neverland
Knowing people won’t ever understand
Never growing up
Allergic to the peace
Clawing at the glass
Knowing I can’t ever speak
Knowing I can’t ever sleep


                        But really… I’m not the girl your mother warns you about.
           I was just in a rainy drought. I won’t kiss someone else and break your heart
                                          Baby you’re my peace of art.
      I won’t make you choose between what you love to do & me baby you’re my remedy.
                        I’m not cold. I’m not reckless. You’ll be protected
I will love you more than anything. I will kiss you and comfort you when you’re stressed out and cry. We will never say our goodbyes. I will stand by your side until you tell me otherwise.
