Please don't play
with my heart,
I only have
a few pieces left.
This is not
hiding away,
I just don't want
to take any more of your crap.
Allow me to slip
into the darkness you created.
Let me
chase shadows.
I once used to run
with both my legs tied together.
Now I just lay down
wherever it is that I stop.
Please don't play
with my heart,
this is no longer
yours to keep.
Exhausted by my attempts to be happy. If this is where I am destined to stay, so be it.
