BitterSweet - Chasity Hamilton

The lights flash behind my eyes-
glazed over from a night
I'll never want to remember.

But you kissed me,
Oh, how you kissed me,
and told me I wouldn't always be this way.

The insecuirties linger on my lips-
my eyes sink into my head
my limbs unstable, shaking.

But the things you said-
Oh, how you got to me
and I think it's so lovely.

My thoughts melt
into one pool
of the mess I drown in.

But how you reached for me-
made me think I might be lovely,
I might be worth a second look.

An empty stomach
in trade for an absent mind.
Is it just me?

But then you look my way
with eyes full of content
and I can't believe it's me

that fills you-
a cure for the hunger...
and I can't believe it's me.
