Please don’t leave
I’m not sure my heart can take it
It’s fragile like paper
yea, a paper heart.
Worn down to a single layer
so very thin
it’s torn at every edge,
soaked in the tears
that have bled from my eyes
for years.
it’s bruised and scratched
and struggles to beat
so please I beg
don’t give it a reason to stop

She is everything he
wanted
nothing that he
needed
******* laced lover
kisses like gasoline
igniting red flames
from his toes
crawling
straight to his head
like a California fire
she blazed through

leaving him
for someone else
to mend to.
