the girl who swallowed the moon

when you're sixteen and inlove, you'd think a love like that could never go cold. 

as i lay tonight
i’m coming to terms with all of the ways
you still exist inside of me

when i hear a good song
you’re still first person i want to tell

when i stumble upon a good book
you’re the only person i don’t gatekeep it wit

could i ever love you less?
i was so young then
i didn’t know how to not lose myself
with this calamitious love

despite it all
i knew we we’re never going
to come out of this clean

when you’re sixteen and inlove
you’d think a love like that
could never go cold

but who are you?
the girl who swallowed the moon
eating up her lover

afraid of what he’s making her feel
didn’t know how can she miss something
she’d gone her entire life without

but then
who was he?

when he loved her for something
she never was to begin with;

a girl in a human form
