This is a poem about how easily you can be hurt by someone you love. |
Here take it No, you can have it I want you to You’re the only person I could say that to Besides, it’s useless if you don’t have it Be careful- don’t drop it My heart is fragile Will you be mine? How I’ve longed to ask you But I hesitate Afraid to unmask you Because your response Could shatter my world Let the seasons bleed together As my senses are twirled Dizzy and disoriented No one to lean on I fall alone And let my consciousness be gone Yet even in my dreams I can’t stop falling The echo of your words Perpetually present, never calling An unholy pestilence Rotting my mind Internal decomposition My heart confined Floating in liquefied organs And blood from burst veins Sinking into myself Bound in chains Liquidate my assets My heart cannot be sold You wouldn’t take it for free My love’s worth its weight in gold So I’m terrified of your answer I can see how things would go Could you ever love me? Your reply: No. What’s that? You don’t need it? Don’t *want* it? That’s okay I guess I’ll hold onto it Lock it away Oh, would you look at that I guess it doesn’t really matter anymore It’s broken |
