peaches..this is for you

Shes hard to impress cuz shes already seen the sun set and its hard to beat that

Shes the sweetest tea I know and scatters bits of happiness in a trail that maybe someone will find her. But im thinkin the birds might be eating the crumbs cuz no bodys found the path.

Shes Got ahead full of awful things but this towns so small they practical can look into your ears peek into your brain and see all those nasty things

Keep it shut

She puts a twisted twig behind her ear and tucks it beneath her hair to say I stick to the roots and ground myself so when I sleep the stem can grow into my pillow and all the scary things will be blocked out behind my big blooming branches.

But she cant.Shes got something stuntin that growth Cuz theres a hole in her where her heart fell out when she went scurrying away from those monsters that we learned lived inside of us, not in our closets anymore. Yeah her heart fell out and I tried to look for it mybe I could wrap it up and give it to her

Look I found it

Don’t be scared

No don’t be scared

Just take it

But I DIDN’T find it but want to cuz she needs it and she deserves it and the monsters who made it fall out better not go chasing her again.

This girl is the peaches, soft and bitter all at once. She says she thinks shes moving backwards cuz nothing new ever comes along and makes it all good, And I said hey, I know you’ve got that big old hole for awhile, but if you want I’ll fill it with cocoa and maybe a few bits of that happiness you were scattering and maybe youll be full again and itl be okay.

She said shed like that and sweet tea peaches and I went on walking.

And I told her no more monsters would come running after her ever again.
