"It may have been in pieces.. but I gave you the best of me"-Jim Morrison(the doors)


The once erupting volcanoes inside 

her
turned cold and dormant, hardening her  body until she could not sleep
She cried so much that the roaring ocean that once encompassed her limbs 
Dried up to become a barren desert
You put stars in her eyes but then
burned them all out when you started smoking again
Marlboros, to get the taste of
her Chapstick 
off your cracked lips
And  she always had sunlight streaming through her veins 
but it's been stormy skies ever since Shes ripped them open 
The planets that once spun smoothly
have collided dizzily with the meteors  inside her head
And  she's done her best to nourish  
the roses that have replaced her sickened stomach 
Because you always told her that She had a green thumb
But I don't think she knows that she can't water flowers with vodka
