Heaven Forbid
You know me
You just don't remember me
You could tell me what happened when I couldn't sleep at night
Becuase heaven forbid your girlfriend have nightmare
You could tell me all the pretty names you called me
Becuase heaven forbid I forget that I"m beautiful
Because your hands fit directly between mine
In those spaces and gaps
Because heaven forbid my hands get cold
You could tell me why you love me
Because heaven forbid you ever leave
You could tell me I was a force of nature
Because heaven forbid I forget that I am made of stardust
That I have the universe in my veins
And stars in my eyes
You could tell me you would never leave me
Because heaven forbid I ever be heartbroken
Heaven forbid I ever write 1000 poems about you
About us
About how we ended
How we fell apart
Turned to dust
But heaven isn't here anymore
Isn't in the way your hands fit to mine
Isn't in the way you smile
Isn't in the way you tell me I"m beautiful
Because as soon as I started dating you I traded
Heaven for Hell
Traded a prince for an opressor
Traded Disney for Grimm
Becuase I learned that happily ever after doesn't exist with you
Unless happy has become a synonym for scared to death
Because trust me
You
Know
Me
