Leaves Me Everytime
Folder:
The Other Side Anger spills out of me
as if my heart was leakinh
from pain in my chest
tightening, incontrollably.
A sense of expected abandonment
or loss of everything.
Why does it surprise me
When I let my heart open
people step on it
Like a cigarette butt no one wants.
I should know better
after all these years
of trying to be loved
with no one to welcome me
with open arms.
The distance grows
my heart remains heavy
Everyone leaves at some point
leaving me alone
As if I were one with the darkness
As if I belong there
to rot away
To grow small
within my own mind
and body.
