"i pity your brain, it thinks too loud
i pity your heart, it beats too hard
i pity your soul, it drags itself around
i pity you,
how you find meaning in words you don't understand
how you find home in places you don't see
you depend a little too much on intuition, and a little less on logic,
it isn't your fault that life was introduced as a fairytale
my dear, you're so innocent, even after all you've seen,
your eyes dart to find love in everything, they also turn down in disappointment when you find none
you're a little too fragile, too tender for this cruel world
i hope this thin blanket i offer will keep you warm,
i apologize for the scars they left on your heart,
i apologize for the nightmares you can't wake up from,
i apologize for the things you wish you could forget,
i apologize for the world, i apologize for what it has made you
so, spill your pain on me, stain me over and over again,
but don't ever let this frail hand go."
-k.v.
