I do not deserve your love
Your gentle kisses
Your midnight wishes
I should not be the keeper of your heart
I am clumsy and fragile
And I hurt you often
With a steady increase of intensity
I cut you with my words
And devour you with my silence
As if spilling your blood could make up for all the pain I've ever felt
I am unfair and demanding
I am manipulative with no mercy
I am attention seeking with no boundaries
And I love you
And I think that loving you is the deepest wound
I could ever deal you
But I can't let you go
I can't set you free from my venomous embrace
Because I am selfish
And I want you to keep loving me
Because I've never felt this whole before
