Suicide
Love
is self-inflicted pain
those with broken hearts
must be insane
Gambling
every delicate possession
Dignity, Pride, a fragile Heart
tied in one love confession
It’s a gamble
I’m not willing to take
No, not when
My heart’s at stake
No, not me
I won’t get my hopes flushed
Because love is suicide
and I don’t want my heart crushed
