Every Day

 Every Day . 

Did I leave you with the scent of my words 

The kind you can’t wash off your skin 

The ones you can’t un-see 

In this dim world the stars tip there hat 

Am I the light you secretly hold on too - 

Was I the lost weapon hidden under your drawers . 

I escape with lacerations - 

I escape on the mend . 

One thing is for sure 

I can’t let you forget 

Because every day remains the same 

Here you are on my ribs I see your name 

It’s the truth in blood 

Coursing through your veins 

Impossible to dis / spell 

When souls that are one 

Never - can be two. 

It’s the kind of pain you enjoy 

It’s the pain you hold on too 

Because it’s the only way 

I can’t lose 

You .
