There's no way to escape the complications I left behind. The memories are enough to eat me alive but sometimes you just have to leave them behind.
So many photos never found their way into the bags I packed,
(but a painting with two eyes blended at a crack?)

When sentences are set ablaze why put out the flames when they're intended for you?
Maybe action was singed by charred words.

-Ethane radiated from your pores while a flammable tongue encouraged growth-

The demons you feared the most only asked for an invitation.
You didn't have to let them in.

Now you're their hostess
This is you're storm to weather, now entertain.
Don't keep them waiting.
------------------------------------------
If you give me burdens don't think I'll come out unscarred
It's just that life's too short to let it leave you marred.
------------------------------------------

What happens when everything you loves becomes everything you fear?
Would it make sense just to let it all disappear?
Thank you City and Color for helping me write again
