Sentences

You know, the pretty kind.

I just want to write pretty sentences

Filled with pretty words

The ones you can’t get out of your head

The kind you can read over and over again

Girls retweet and repost them til the end of time

And none of the words go unheard

But some of the prettiest sentences

Come from bruises and cuts

The kind that are tender and deep

That make you lose a lot of sleep

Those might even give you unhealthy coping mechanisms

The bruises start to fade shortly after your 3rd

Or you fall in love with a bad guy

Whose room is a pigsty

And might be a criminal

But at least he called you pretty

Sometimes the pretty sentences don’t feel finished

Except there’s another author who said otherwise

It’s up to you to finish the sentence with pretty words

That make pretty sentences that will turn into chapters

Pretty chapters that make people lose track of time

But for you... it's a lifetime

Never forget to write pretty sentences
