baby
how did you fool my heart
into believing that you were the home
i had been searching for
when really
you were the one
who left me homeless

taking advantage
of her patience
is abuse
she will be vulnerable
larissa Dec 2017
I'm afraid to kiss you
to lock our lips
and taste you.
I'm afraid that I will love you
and then you will leave
like most men do.
I'm afraid it won't be enough
to make you stay
and that desire you've always had
will finally go away.
I'm afraid of the damage
you will do to me
before I finally
let you go.

when i speak
to you
my words
become soft
and vulnerable
because
the last thing
i want to do
is leave you hurting
why can't you be that kind to me?

maybe
when you left
those scars
on my heart
i became
a beautiful poet.
my heart was too precious to fall in love with someone like you
larissa Dec 2017
the only hands
that are worth
holding this heart
are my own
larissa Dec 2017
this distance
you forced
upon me
burned my heart
to ash

and even though
you left me as dust
i still begged you to stay
but instead,
you blew my ashes away.
