You said you

were made to

swim free;

but, my darling

I'm a harbor not

the sea..


*Sandoval

it seems to me
those with the
biggest hearts
experience
the biggest heart break.
constant disappointment
followed by devastation
correct me if i'm wrong.
but,
i know i'm not.
it's ironic
really.
the ones who give
their love
always hurt in the end.
a cycle
never ending-
no escaping-
never time-
to catch
a
real break

just because the star-
fish can grow its arms back does
not mean it didn't hurt.
______________

even though scars heal
and wounds fade it doesn't mean I
will forget the pain.

I will burn alive at the brink of dawn
consumed by my passion
and hate
for my sadness can no longer suppress the flames in my eyes
so i will burn bright
what a beautiful demise
