You’re like the uncapped bottle of my toothpaste
If I don’t hold you down some of you goes to waste
That potential I suppose
Or the love and glory you chose not to show
You’re like chewing gum on the train
Receiving death stares all the way to main
Because it’s impolite to make noise so obviously it will cause disdain
You’re like that cigarette in my purse
I just need you when I am at my worst
You’re like my tangled necklaces on my dresser
I would love to wear you
You’re pretty and you match my shoes
But too much work to make you into your past due
You’re like my cracked screen phone
I have warranty
But I’m too lazy to visit apple just to have you replaced
And have you dropped in water after a few weeks
You’re like the causes to liver cancer
Alcohol amongst other things
But you’re cheap sometimes when I need a remedy even faster
You’re like my word vomit
Some things should be kept unsaid
But it’s blurted out anyways and the regrets are dead
You’re like that awkward laugh I have
during times of distress
After the laugh I realize how much it was a mess
You’re like my chewed up short nails that I bite when I’m scared
Every time I go in for a manicure the lady yells at me for being so careless
You’re like that old tshirt I had when I was 13
If I throw you out part of me will bleed
But the other part will cherish that parts of my closet are free
I would snooze you like my 6 am alarm
I must wake up to you
But would turning you off be any harm?
You’re like a bad habit you see
A habit that will just irk me
You’re like a bad habit you see
A habit that should not be a part of a daily routine
