Ain't no roses on my grave Put me in the cold cold ground Meet me in the morning And watch as the winter rain is falling...🌹

mavi - night drive (no roses, 2017)

“It's after dusk and it’s just me and my phone I’m high as fuck my baby sleeping alone Scroll through her tweets as I roll Niggas sleepy but no sleep in my bones My house is decent, I’m no beacon at home And so I speed as I doze Out of excuses for erratic behavior Now my hubris is just tatted I’ll take it Spat in the face of my savior Text my brother make sure I’m still coherent I only trust him ‘cause that nigga my mirror Reflect the depth of my spirit And I’m still shallow but I’ll battle at home My thoughts just rattle cross the cracks of my skull My laugh intact as they dull Iron sharpens iron, I prioritize desires This sort of brings endorphin Sorting through my hoard of liars Residing in my head, was quiet while you slept baby Still tryna do my best, my eyes don’t get no rest lately Nightmare image bled, you crying in distress, save me My eyes are getting red, I’m tired of your rest, wake up With doubt, I’ll hear your whisper rising or your figure hits at Horizons I had hit while diving in your river, figures Pointing fingers has never gotten us nowhere My phone is ringing, my head, the sky, and the cold air, ay We gon’ die without shit outta life I’mma die without shit but the spite And all this shit that I write And all these words ain’t shit without light And all these birds ain’t shit without flight And that’s the end of my night...”

What would Chris to do for Elliot on Valentine’s Day?

search for heart-shaped pills...

Chris would try his hardest to restrain himself from going nuts, mainly because Elliot is not in the mood for his romantic escapades or Valentine's Day in general. Every day feels the same to him so Elliot surely would forget about it.

Chris *batting his eyelashes like a princess*: "Ell, do you know what day it is?!"

Elliot *high under the covers*: "Friday I guess."

And any attempt to light their spark will be angrily rejected 😔 At best, they'll play a round of Azul again and Chris watches abaseball game in silence.

In times like these, he wishes Elliot would be more adventurous. Like their ex, for example...
