for each time you don't love me back,
i love me some more.

Some days
my heart
acts like a
little puppy
that just
won't listen.
I have to
put a leash
around it's
collar just so
it won't
go running
towards you.

no, it's just a chip.
just when i thought
i had you at the tip
of my lips,
ready to be devoured
body and soul.
how could i be so silly
thinking it was that easy?
Who said love
was easy? who
said you would be
easy?
but i won't give in.
i will put a leash
on my heart
until it kneels before me
i will protect it
like a mother protects
her child.

The only person I need to pick me up, is myself. But *******,
wouldn't it be nice to have your
hand to hold while doing it.

People often ask me
why I'm so loud all the
time. I wish
I could tell them
that I'm only trying
to drown out the noises
inside me.

I like you in a sense
Where I shouldn't use the word 'like' at all.
