Maybe it was that cold daunting stare
Fists clenched
Cold sweat
Love ******* grinch… was it me?

Did I invest my heart in a shattered jar?
Filled to the brim,
Spilling over with hate..
Slowly brewing a monster?

Trying to protect what could never be protected
Two carpenters competing to fix
A door that never fit
Why am I here?

That instant flicker in your eyes
Spitting venom from parted lips
Seeking vengeance on an unintentional damage
Or was I the damage?
