I find myself having to relearn the lesson
that you cannot love someone until they love you back
our love was like a human taming a lion
eventually I realized loving you
didn't mean you would stop biting me
it just made me a fool
for loving something
created to hurt me
truth is
the wild is in your blood and
it's not your fault
so I forgive you
for what you cannot control
but I also must release myself
from the responsibility of taming your heart


-i'm tired of bleeding out
