Your words call me forward Arms draw me near Hold me here forever- How about we stay together? Your love is a harpoon Don’t seem so stressed- I’ll polish it to perfection- Until I see my heart’s reflection Your warmth is my sun Please keep me healthy, And I promise to try and heal you- Fix you up, just like new Your crazy is my flame stay forever in my heart, Burn it to an ember- Carving your name into its center Your determination is my anchor So let me be your captain, Let’s sail these wild waters- Lead this lamb to the slaughter Your goodbye is my demise Leave me here to rot Broken and ***** Love, don’t you know you hurt me?

Not About Love
Your words call me forward Arms draw me near Hold me here forever- How about we stay together? Your love is a harpoon Don’t seem so stressed- I’ll polish it to perfection- Until I see my heart’s reflection Your warmth is my sun Please keep me healthy, And I promise to try and heal you- Fix you up, just like new Your crazy is my flame stay forever in my heart, Burn it to an ember- Carving your name into its center Your determination is my anchor So let me be your captain, Let’s sail these wild waters- Lead this lamb to the slaughter Your goodbye is my demise Leave me here to rot Broken and ***** Love, don’t you know you hurt me?
Too much? I actually wrote this through a different perspective than usual, so keep that in mind.... Toxic relationships though, am I right? Is a moment of comfort worth years of self-destruction? Or constant regrets? No? Then maybe it's worth the self-consciousness? Hateful thoughts? Mhmmm, it seems really irrational...but just stop and imagine an abused, starved, and nearly frozen dog....left outside for days..Then,for just a few moments, the backdoor opens. That dog would run to the door like it would never run again, maybe even if it knows the blow that's about to come...as well as the following days of suffering. Just one moment of warmth is all it wants.
