what i wrote in study hall while i should have been doing my math homework:
his bare essentials
-----are my necessities
---I love you, baby
----but there’s no room for niceties
when I’m playing to win
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
bitten lips and buried memories
---it's packed away somewhere in my mind
the box marked “regrets”
-----is a safe bet
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
when you’re saying matchstick words
----to ignite kerosene dreams
--it only takes one breath
----to blow it all apart
-----are my necessities
---I love you, baby
----but there’s no room for niceties
when I’m playing to win
