skitt: passion after the flames poem

I didn't love her then but I do now
It hurts all four walls of my heart cave in
I don't want my heart broken again
And I keep avoiding it because I want to be your friend
I'm holding back the tears in my eyes.
Turning everything I say into little white lies
You found me in my pain 
In the sadnesses in the dark
Help me put together the pieces of my heart
Quench my thirst when I was in a drought 
But the passion and the flames have already been put out
There's nowhere to fall cuz I'm already on the ground
We're just friends now no longer fooling around
But my heart aches wines pains and cry's out for you
Something I try to hide in everything I do.
These feelings I keep trying to disavow
I didn't love her then but I do now

skitt: passion after the flames

I had a fling. She told me she loved me so I said it back. But neither of us loved the other. So after a really dramatic month we called it quits. Now we're friends and I'm falling for her. I didn't love her then but I love her now. She has a new girl friend. One that she got 2 days before we broke up. A girl she's crazy about and talks about all the time. She does everything for her. She loves her so much. I didn't hurt then but I definitely hurt now. We see each other almost every other week. We spend our time drinking and getting really high. We talk about our feelings. I helped her get a cat and plants. We do DIY projects. We didn't do this stuff then but we do these things now. It was supposed to be just a good time. Not a long time. It was supposed to be fun. It was supposed to be hot. I didn't cry then but I cry now. My heart is the biggest masochist I've ever met. It's playing a game that is already over. It's falling after I've already hit the ground. It's bleeding after the wounds have been healed. It's passion after the flames have been put out. I didn't love her then but I do now.
