**A poem compiled from different songs.**

Girl I’m black and blue, so beaten down for you (Out Getting Ribs - King Krule)

Me and you went to hell and back just to find peace (Hell n Back - Bakar)

I really like the way your hair blows, looking back at me (Striptease- Carwash)

You’re so beautiful but inside I’m dead, I’m so dead inside (dead inside-blackbear)

Paid the price for how I hurt you (Right Here for Now- Bakar)

Thought it was safer to bleed out to strangers (Extra Extra- Chandler Leighton)

I couldn’t utter my love when it counted, ah but I’m singing like a bird ‘bout it now. (Shrike- Hozier)

Anything to save me from the goodness she gave me. (Live Well - Palace)

Just like that she vanished and packed and never even called. (It Had to Be You- Motion City Soundtrack)

I wake up and I reach out to your side of the bed cause a part of me still thinks you’re there. (What Am I Missing? - The Band Camino)

When I see the places we used to go I just want to know- do you think about us? (Do You Think About Us? - Night Game)

And it ain’t easy living above and I can’t help but keep falling in love with bones and ashes, with bones and ashes. (Here to Forever- Death Cab for Cutie)

Floating on nothing, I’m nothing. Arms are wide open, I’m calling out your name…you were right. (You were right- Rufus Du Sol)

The only thing that I refuse to forget is when you said I was the f*cking best. (Pretty Great- Fickle Friends)

Thoughts of you keep me up at night, up at night. (Up at Night- Kehlani)

No I’m not afraid to disappear…I guess the end is here, the end is here. (I know the end- Phoebe Bridgers)

Humiliated by a family member for sending away for publishing materials somewhere around the first grade, I locked my voice in a drawer. It's been too long, and it's time to open the drawer again. Imperfect and exposed- this is me.
