Thunder: I’ll never forget

When you left that summer

I digged a hole

Deep down under

I left there

A picture I would give

When you come back

At last,

My old friend

Old friend: I’ll never forget

When I left you that summer

A breeze in the air

But it felt like thunder

And I watched you

As you digged that hole

Deep down under

And I wondered when at last

You would unbury

It’s treasure

Thunder: I’...

And I don’t feel hate

That you whispered about me that day

What hurt me the most

Is that you couldn’t feel relief

And I can’t seem to stray

From the words in my thoughts

_Dot._

_Dot._

_Dot._

And I’m sorry

That your true enemy

Was the one you wouldn’t recognize

And I’m sorry for your pain

And that it wouldn’t go away

I should’ve seen it in the hall

When you whispered that day

And I’m sorry all your...

I was raised on a thought

A tiny seed

Planted in a sea of rot

_It was that if you took up too much space_

_You’d be a disgrace_

And so I grew up

Raised on that thought

I cross my arms to hide my stomach

Because I’m nervous that they’ll spite it

And when I walk past a man

I cover my chest with my hands

And every day of my life

I see everything in black and white

And do you know what I’ve learned?

...

What is heartbreak?

I wouldn’t know

Because I’ve never felt before

And I wouldn’t let myself

Feel the fire that burns

And they tell me I’m heartless

Or perhaps naive

But why would I want

To feel everything?

I may long for her

But that’d ruin things

Instead I sit

On a throne not broken

But it feels

Like I’m choking

Because I’ve never felt heartbreak

And I’ve never seen the world

Because you had m...

I told the star a story

One made from ink and time

A story that I told him

A story I couldn’t rhyme

A girl once loved a man

A man once took this girl

Thought to make her his wife

But killed before he could try

The star then blinked out

Of the cold night sky

It’s light dimmed

As it began to cry

I told the star a story

Of love that was gone

It went all wrong

And the star wept

All through the night
