I still can't quite picture
What it's like to hold a hand
For the thought of love and desire
Is just a flat out blank
For I think of the ways
Of how affection is shown
But I am of no flower
No,
Not even close to a rose.
If anything,
I am its thorns,
Full of anger and regret.
For whenever I look into the mirror
I really wish the image would just crack.
For I am of no heart,
Only numbed,
And hardened,
Trapped within the cycle
Of self-hatred without a recipe
For me to be able to mend
No,
I cannot understand the ways of love
For I only know how to loathe
And bring out my daggers
Out of fear your hands would bloodied
By my sharpened spine and soul
For I do not want to hurt you
That is my biggest fear...
So my dear,
Please I beg of you,
To just turn around and go;
To just move on with your life,
And to not stay and try to fix
My unhappy, broken pieces
For that I must do myself
Without you giving too much
Of your much too kind,
Lending hand
