Wearing my heart on my sleeve

by A Metaphorical Beauty   May 27, 2006


My mind a whirlpool of many thoughts,
Spinning out in any direction,
What do I want? Who do I want?
Maybe anyone who will give affection?

I saw you for a second and my heart told me forever,
But nothing lasts for ever,
Life is just one long chain of ephemerality,
Won't you just meet me, where ever, whenever?

With nothing left to lose, I'll say I love you, carelessly,
They all pretend they understand,
But no-one ever will,
Everyone just make believes that their life is planned.

No-one will ever feel my pain,
Because no-one can be me,
I smile to hide my existing pain,
Living this lie is killing me.

The golden rule is you should never beg,
neither should you cry,
Find someone else to focus your thoughts on,
and sure enough you'll get by.

I already broke the sanctity of love,
So I may aswel continue this battle,
I'll just cry a little longer and sleep more reckless,
I gave you my heart and you promised you'd be gentle.

But it's like someone else, they've promised the same,
Who knows what to believe?
With a world so cruel and hearts so cold,
Even the sweetest have the ability to deceive.

I've opened my heart, and poured it out pure,
But I wont give it away,
It wouldn't be fair, It wouldn't be right,
But I'm afraid of what you'll say.

There's no rush for sure, I'm not running here,
Life goes too fast at our best,
Take each day as it comes, I will promise myself,
To take a step down, lay in peace, and rest.
