Consequences

I want to love without consequence,

Feel without remorse,

Crave without hunger.

I am seen but not heard,

Touched but not felt,

Wanted but not needed.

I would give you my soul without question,

In the hopes you will use it better than I.

But at what cost?

I give until I can't anymore.

I am not repaid by nature for being good,

But I cannot shut off this feeling that I am destined for the life.

Absorb pain and give back understanding and love.

I do not want this for me.

This is not the life I imagined.

A ghost with a heart of gold,

All because he gave to much,

And received so little...
