The Brace Position

I'll tell you the truth so close to your lips it'll taste like a lie. There's a tongue in my mouth. It matters. This fucking matters.

The only thing that works is the truth and you are the hardest truth to tell.

So kiss like you give a damn.

Months later and these words are still the ones that stick out to me.

Everything you write is like that, in a way; every word is something I once knew in a past life but couldn't quite bring into being. It is nice to be reminded of the truths we hold within ourselves sometimes.
