Addicted

I love it when you

Curl your arms around my neck

And sink your teeth into my shoulder

And twist my heart to bloody ribbons

 

Snapping.
I love it when you

Kill me in every way possible

And suffocate me under your breathless thoughts

And line-dance across my skin

 

Crimson.

 

I love it when you

Press on me like a weight

And hollow me out like a hole

And twirl me along the edge of the roof

 

Dangling.

 

I love it when you

Whisper dark nothings into my ear

And make my heart beat faster

And kiss my hand goodbye

 

Fallen.

 

But I love it most when you

Leave me alone with the crowd

And hide yourself away somewhere lost

And forget about me

 

Please.

 

I hate it when I

Curl my arms around its neck

And beg for it to suffocate me

And ask for it to remember me
