you had stones in your chest, that cut me when you ignored me. you had flames in you throat, that wounded me when all I wanted was to hold you. you had thorns on your heart, that hurt me with a fake kind of likeness.

but then, I see you be totally different.

your stones are pushed away with gentleness. your flames are extinguished with sweet words. your thorns are shaved down to display a perfect rose.

why couldn't i have that 'you'?
