All I have to offer you
Is a handful of broken glass
But know that
Every shard
Is inscribed with your name
I'm sorry, love,
If sometimes they cut you
I'm a bit rough around the edges
But if you hold me to light
Just right

I'll shine

I'll keep the pain away from you,
My love.
Hurt is something I'll do never,
My love.
But one night,
I lost my love forever.
Motionless, she laid on the side of the road.
How she left,
The story unfolds.
Fore a drunk driver had taken her life.
My one true love,
My perfect wife.
A ****** scene it was.
One as if there were no one above.
The stains on the windshield,
I got out and cried.
As I slowly walked over,
To see if she was alright...

Trading “I love yous” like playing cards
in the backseat of my car
and my hand doesn’t look very promising.
They say you gotta know when to hold ‘em,
know when to fold ‘em,
but I am always walking away
when I should stay
and vise versa,
I just don’t want to hurt you.

This game we have been playing
is fixed and unfair
and you have some tricks
up your sleeve,
I can tell.
And I can skip my turn
but I can’t leave.
You must think I am
a joker for the way I keep
breaking my poker face.
I can’t help it,
you’re just so good at this.
My heart sinks every time
you ask me what I have to give,
because I would go all in for you
if it was worth the risk
but at the end of each round
all I can say is “go fish”.

I like you
Is what I want to say,
But the fear of rejection keeps me
From doing so.

I have been broken,
For saying what I feel
So many times before.
Excruciating pain--
I don't want to feel anymore,
I want to be numb,
But I still want to feel
The way I feel about you.

You are unlike others
I have met before.
You are the sunlight,
In the darkest of the day.

I know you may not
Feel the same.
And I know I might
get hurt in the end,
But I will risk it
just so you know
how I feel about you,
*I like you
