Give for nothing

The heart gave

I gained all the red

My pages gained colour

It became clean an crisp 

Full of expectation

His became burnt with jagged edges

Burning his story into dust

Visions of the future they had

I only saw the devices

they emitted love

I emitted hatred

They gave

I took

They shared and never asked

I took and never gave

Soon they left

I continued

I looked to receive

And never give

But we can never receive 

When we never give
