Unthink You

Pieces

To My Love
Look,  I'm sorry.
I cannot burden you any longer. I wish my words would sound a bit more gentle...  a blessing and a curse.
I cannot get attached to you,
for I don't deserve you.

I cannot get hurt again.
I cannot bare the fact that in the future,  the voices in my head will say.. 'I told you so'.  I'm fine.

I'm fine. I've been too alone,  for too long. And Baby,  the things that linger in my mind, are too dangerous for your gentle heart.

My past is too horrid,  for even nostalgia,  Baby, is like a dagger in my heart.

Baby,  my heart shattered into a million pieces.
Every time I tried to put it together,  I saw my reflection on the pieces...  I got scared and ran away.

Then, Baby,  you came along and saw the pieces... you saw your reflection... it's scared you but you still stood there,  mending my broken heart,  even when the pieces cut you,  you insisted that it did not hurt,  because it was MY pieces.

And Baby,  you fixed my heart,  and you saw all of my flaws and scars,  you stood there and insisted that the flaws and scars were YOURS.

You loving me made me scared. So I ran away with my healing heart. As I ran away...  the pieces started to fall apart. The pieces lessened as I strayed from you. You followed the broken pieces and it led you to me.

Baby,  ever heard the words 'If you love someone you have to let them go'
Well I thought those words were utter bullshit until now.

I couldn't bare seeing you love someone broken like me.

But,  little did I know,  that you picked up all those little pieces, you mended it,  but you took out YOUR heart and gave it me. You put the MY broken one inside you and then you said:

"Now you don't have to bare seeing me loving someone broken"
