Hush
Be Quiet
Shut the fuck up .... Please
Please just be quiet .
Listen , listen , just for once .
Say nothing in return .
Feel my words , the same way I felt your actions .
I respect myself enough to not treat you badly just because you treated me poorly.
My heart knows not how to break another.
My mind on the other hand . That's a different story .
See ? My mind will attempt to save my heart .
Like the life raft in titanic . My mind is the Caledon . Will wither away and freeze just to give life to the only thing that keeps me from inflicting the same pain I've experienced.
It's an oxymoron .
I loose my mind and keep my heart .
But wouldn't most people save the mind and dish out the only piece of them that is capable of being broken , capable of loving , and feeling unloved , capable of feeling love . The one thing that can destroy a nation.
Not I.
Oh no, not I.
I keep my heart over this mess of a mind .
For my heart tells me no lies . For my heart has always been true to me .
But this anxiety ridden mind of mine has played many tricks , has lost many battles against its greatest oppressor . Memory .
Though my heart is scarred and marked with past transgressions and trespasses of those who were unworthy to know it's faith , to know it's depth . My heart is so much stronger than my being . My heart is the lifeline to my soul .
