rocks shaped like stars

we could only bet on rocks shaped like stars and empty promises

you were brave when you left like you mattered nothing to me

i was brave enough to let you go

i was brave enough to think you'd come back

crawling in the mud

i was brave to think you'd fix what you broke

not knowing what you've done

i was brave to think you're not like the rest

now you're just a different poem, at best

you were brave when you left like i mattered nothing to you

just another undone screw that will never frame your painting

it was never my place there

not my place to frame you

i painted you
