THE BRUNT AND THE BREAK UP

Folder: 
JOURNAL#8

too much, eh?

That's all you ever said

like that was all that there ever was to say

and in my mind I can still see red

but you always had to have your own warped way

while all I could do was on your snow white sleeve

softly bleed

as you stared back in horror at my long over due self

emptying need

I love(d) you with every pale ounce of blood left in my

proud broken heart

so, if you have any sense whatsoever you'd simply just

love me to myself now

Do It!

because one of us has to find the strength from

within to be brave

and it can't be me for I have to be the one who plays

it smart

by forcing myself to give back everything you gave

as well as take charge so I can once again attempt to

make a new start...........
