Mile a Minute
July 3, 2018
Young and irresponsible
Stupid and careless in love
People hunt for these things
Imagine being held by the person you have a crush on
Then thrown into a bucket of hot lava like yesterday's trash
Them curled up next to you on the couch
Then crying on the ground wishing you would turn around
A fairy tale is what these things are my darlings
You work for a relationship
The relationship does not work for you
No matter how much you want it too
Your heart will beat a mile a minute when he smiles
But then gets chewed and spit out when he has his arms around her waist
