I have given myself to you physically
I have given you my most precious gift
Not my body
But my words
I would give you my heart too
If I thought you wanted it
Or perhaps in has already slipped away
Seeking you out against my will
Utterly disregardent of the fact that you may not want it.

I apologize if my heart has found its way to you
And I do not blame you
If you do not wish to keep it safe
For my heart is lonely, stitched loosely and confused
And I would wish it on no one.

Perhaps I have given you too many words
In hopes they will give my heart something to stumble over
But my words may serve the same purpose
Of scaring you away.

But my words are more resilient than my heart
And they can take rejection
My words are braver than my heart
But they might just be more foolish
Marching blindly and fearlessly into a place they may not be wanted.
