Leah
She had thin hips, full lips, eyes like rain
Skin like winter, lungs like hell
She taste like heaven, fucked like sin
She had cobweb veins, cigarette love
She lived like a hurricane, burned like the sun
She had ocean eyes, coffee-laced laughter
Alcohol kiss, a smile like rain after
A storm in her heart, a soul torn apart
She loved me like spring
left me like winter
She lived like the fall
She changed like the leaves
She moved on like the seasons
forgetting me
