Drought
Shit’s been too good.

Forever Ain’t Forever

Risk Assesment
We get caught up in all of the what-if’s We worry Send ourselves spiraling down an abysmal slope of fear Honestly?… I am scared You could use me up for the giver that I am You could break my heart in a malicious act of revenge towards all of the girls who have wronged youContinueContinue reading “Risk Assesment”

When you sleep, I study you And for that brief moment, you are exactly what I imagine you to be.
