But One

There was never anyone else.
And I do not think it is fair for you to make everyone who has ever dared to love you after me pay for my mistakes.  

Because there was never anyone else.  

Smudge

I always left your place with lipstick smudged over my left cheek.  

I always considered it better than the last night when I left with mascara smudged over my left cheek.

Always Tomorrow

push. push. push.
fall. fall. fall.

You can always get up tomorrow...

Solstice

I set you as far from myself as possible.
And you stayed far, far away.

A night never felt so long.

The truth lies.

I would not trust my words, they are tainted with whiskey.
I would not trust my words, they are covered in blasphemous honey.
I would not trust my actions, they are sugared in spicy rum.
I would not trust my laugh, it is instilled with the stillest of vodka. 
I would not trust my handshake, it was soaked in gin.
I would not trust my smile, it is glazed in the finest of wines.
I would not trust my tears, they were born of the bottom of a tequila shot.

I would not trust my fears, they were killed with a silent brew...

Depart

I thought I would regret telling you to leave.
But I am so indifferent in the winter...

...that I can not even tell the difference between leaving and arriving. 

Salement De Romantique

"It is shameful how they medicate depression.
I would much rather stumble about and fall in your arms."
