Shallow.

The day love poured out of my mouth
and into the world
you turned away from me
telling me that my insides needed to be pretty too
as if you looked into my eyes and
just knew that I was something barren

That night I ate roses

Thorns lining my stomach,
I approached you again the next day
fervently smiling through bleeding teeth

only, this time I looked inside of you
seeing not love but pity

The pink and yellow roses in my stomach turned grey
maybe only really loved myself

is that why I was this way?
