Give it to me all
Smother me with love
I miss it so much
And I have so much to give

I want to be crushed by it.
Suffocate me till I can’t breathe
Let me feel the love.
I crave that need.

I want to cry tears
But all that comes out are
Pieces of my broken heart that I’m so ready
to give.

But it seems no one wants them
All I do is try to give them away

“Please, sir! Here is a piece of my heart!”
“Oh, madam wait I’d love to give you a piece of my heart!”
“You don’t have to give me yours back!”
“Honestly I promise! I’ll give you all of and me I don’t need yours in return! It would be nice but I don’t expect it!”
"Please... I’ll give you every piece of me."

But they all kept walking.

Some put the pieces in their purses
And save it for a rainy day.
Some put the pieces on their cheek
Until it falls off and does not see a need for it anymore
Some instantly throw it away
And stomp on it.
Just for extra effect.

Please, someone, give me your love in return
I don’t want to give up
I don’t want to live this life without ever knowing what it’s like
To be loved.
Have a great day.
