adore you like the roses (16/30)

i’ve learned to love roses again

because of a boy that reminds

me nothing of you. i broke apart

everything we tried to built

together and refracted the light

onto someone that deserves it.

this was cathartic. spitting out

the rain, putting out the fires.

no more shattered glass. just all

of these roses. just so many pink

skies. turning love into a gentle

creature that never learns to bite.
