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...
