The pressure behind my eyes swells Like the tide under a full moon. Waves crack against my rocky shores And shatter over me. Shards wash away But most stay lodged in my bleeding heart. And I love you anyway. I love you despite your inconsistency and insensitivity. I love you even though I can't stand too close Without feeling worthless. I love you even though You're radioactive. I love you despite the fact that you never Held me the way I needed you to. You were never there The way I was there for you. When I needed you the most, You looked into my crying eyes And walked away. But I love you anyway. I needed you a lot And maybe I was too clingy. But maybe i wouldn't have held Onto you so tightly If I could be sure you would be there When I reached for you. You always knew That I would drop anything And everything to be there for you. But you never gave me that security. Still, I love you I love you even though I can't be sure of Who you are anymore. You used to show me how you felt You used to let me know. But you've become so robotic I'm not sure you feel a thing anymore. And I love you. You used to smile You used to laugh Now your eyes are empty Except for racing calculations. Always thinking Never feeling. You're barely human anymore, Just a machine That won't stop spewing And fixing things that aren't broken. Yet, I love you. And you wonder why Your friends are gone You wonder why you feel so alone. You won't reach anyone Where they need to be felt. And I love more than anything. I love you like I might die tomorrow. I love you even though you don't love me anymore. I love you even though you broke promises you never made. I love you even though you don't deserve my love anymore.
