I know you're a paper friend, and that's okay, because that tells me we're a blank page, that it's up to us to choose what we write. Some folks need a whole lotta pages and some are a sweet scribble in the margins, and that's all good. So, let's see where this goes.

"Paper Friends"

Look pretty while you burn,
Look pretty while you die inside,
Take your weakness and hide it well,
Take your tears and bury them deep,
I feel awkward to see them,
I have my own issues here,
So have the decency to suffer quiet,
And I'll be there in your spring,
I'll be there when you are happy again
And my "love" for you bares no cost.

Paper friends, paper friends, your hands are as dirty as his. He shot the bullet, he pushed me into the hole... but instead of a ladder of kindness you rained down shovels of dirt... here's the funny thing though... I have fashioned steps from the filth and walked on them into the sunlight. For in your lies is the truth of who you are... your cruelty... and so your words mean nothing at all. So drink my lovelies, drink in my absence and make merry, for the day you turned from my tears of blood you blackened your own hearts.
