tag! you’re it

A photo of trees and plants growing around a small body of water

can you blame me for bleeding

in a world of broken glass?

forgive me for not asking for

what I wanted to ask

one wrong sudden move and i will 

surely run and hide 

an unmarked ticking package

that you dared to look inside 

you let me into your heart

did you notice me? how does it feel?

let’s play hide and seek

come find me so I know it’s real

love-drunk off you before we kiss

think of all the things we would have missed 

if we stopped writing stories in our teens

we regret the days that we spend mourning

let me off with just a warning, please

do you remember when your piercing caught my fishnets?

i’d rather die again than live with all the regrets

aren’t you so glad they haven’t made feelings illegal yet?

you let me into your heart

did you notice me? how does it feel?

come play hide and seek

can you find me and prove this is real?

you let me into your heart

are you struggling now? tell me how you feel

cause now its, tag, you’re it

if you can catch up with me, then we have a deal
