cherry kisses

cherry kisses

bloody threats

different feelings

violent songs

far from angelic

regretting everything

and everyone

everybody you once knew

thinking seriously

about choices

and actions

consequences

and debts

forgetting it all

for a reason

keeping it to yourself

so no one can

use it against you

or remind you

or find you out

give it all up

for peace of mind

for quiet

for joy

for somber solitude

for wishing this

away from you

to keep myself true

vain emotions

and overly processed

trivial knowledge

of ups and downs

and could have beens

should ofs

would ofs

and whys?

naturally knowing

all the while

there's a damn good reason

for sharing

and caring

and hiding feelings

nautrally knowing

all the while

that you're in too deep...

one last call

one missed kiss

one empty promise

too fast

too far

too late
